Derek's grandmother, Jean Smith, went to be with the Lord and her beloved husband yesterday. She was the last grandparent that Derek and I had remaining. She was 81 years old. We feel very blessed that we were able to spend her 80th birthday with her last year. She really enjoyed spending time with her great-grandchildren and they loved her dearly. It's sad to think that we have lost an entire generation, but are who we are today because of them. What our grandparents did for us we will never forget. They taught us about the hardships that they endured and more importantly taught us how to survive them. They also taught us what family is really about--love and respect. They will all be missed, but will never be forgotten. Goodbye GG, may you rest in peace.
