Tim's Papa

When I started writing this blog, I wanted to write about our lives.  Good or bad, I wanted to share our lives with you so if you didn't live near us that you would know what is going on with us.

This week we lost Tim's Papa to a heart attack.  Papa has had some health problems over the last couple of years, but the heart attack was still a surprise.  Tim grew up only a few minutes away from his grandparents, so he was very close to his Papa.  Me, I was welcomed into Tim's family by his Papa & Mormor (Tim's grandmother) when we started dating ten years ago.  Papa was a man of few words, but the words he did share with us were meaningful.

Addy was Mormor & Papa's first great-grandchild.  For as much as they love their grandchildren, Addy was special and you could tell any time she was around Papa.  These two, they had a special bond.  We were really lucky, we were able to visit with Papa several times since Addy was born and she was lucky to have met such a wonderful man, no matter short a time.  We have lots of stories and even though he isn't with us anymore, he will still be a part of our lives.

Papa, we will miss you and know you are watching over us.  Thank you for blessing our lives, we are truly better because of you.  Love you!
