Paying Tribute

My Grandpa Galbraith (96) passed away today.  I have a thousand memories swirling around in my head of him.  He will be greatly missed.  I'm so grateful that I was able to see him one last time over Christmas.  He has left a wonderful legacy for our family and we will miss him dearly! It is times like these that I am so thankful that families are forever.  We love you Grandpa!

Aw, I'm so sorry. I have no grandparents left and it kind of sucks. I miss them everyday. Old people are the best...although, I never want to get old, so go figure!

I'm sorry to hear that Emily! He was very nice the one time I met him! I still miss my Grandma, but I like to imagine her with all her family up there. I bet it got pretty lonely down here without some of them.
