My Grandpa

Today I was noticing my grandfathers old wedding ring. I don't really know how I inherited it, but I am so happy that I have it. Every time I put his ring on, it reminds me of my amazing Grandfather. I always remember visiting Utah and going to visit my grandparents. My grandfather was an amazing gardener and it is something that he was truly passionate about. When I was a kid I remember going to look at the garden and later I came running into their house and saying, "mom, grandpa has a ton of groceries in his backyard." It amazed me that he could grow his own food. I loved riding in his pick-up truck and just driving around Brigham City. Brigham City will always have a special place in my heart. Thanks grandpa for teaching me to be a hard worker, showing compassion, and loving those around you. I love you and miss you!

Grandparents are amazing people who love us unconditionally. I miss my grandparents too! I only hope I can be the kind of grandmother who elicits these kinds of thoughts and remembrances. Thanks for sharing.
Love ya,
Aunt Cathy
