So this past weekend we went up to Utah to be with the family. It was a great time...we hung out with both the families, friends, and was able to see my Grandpa.
For the past 7 years, my Grandpa has been sick. First he fought cancer, then, open heart surgery, numerous bouts of phenomena, and diabetes. This weekend he looked so tired and super thin. We all knew that this was probably the last time we saw him before he passed. Sure enough, my Mom called yesterday morning and I knew instantly that it he had passed. I leave in the morning to return back to Utah for his funeral.
My Grandpa was an amazing man. I was a big Papa's girl and I will miss him horribly! I'm just relieved that he is done being so sick and finally at rest. I'm so blessed that I had 26 years with him and that Kaedance knew him. This past weekend, he meet Landon and held him. He loved it! I'm so glad we were all there to see him and hug and kiss him one last time. I made sure to tell him I loved him so much and that he was able to tell me too. I truly believe he waited to see us Grandkids and his newest Great Grandsons, Landon and Drayson. How comforted I feel to know that we will be separated for a short time, but will be together again one day.
I love you Papa! I will miss you!
P.S. The Mariah Carey song is for him

I'm so sorry to hear about your Grandpa! It sounds like you were very close. I'm glad he got to hold Landon last weekend. I hope the funeral goes well - you'll be in our prayers. Hope to see you next week!
