Today was a sad day for the Mason family. My husband lost his grandpa, a man whom he has been very fond of. His grandparents are like parents to him. 2 weeks ago today, we got a call that his grandpa had fallen and Jeremy needed to go pick him up off the floor. You can read about the story in my previous post. After a long battle and being in the hospital for 2 weeks, he passed away. During his stay, he came across many complications and the family was faced with many choices to make. In the end, the decisions were made easy, as they respected his wishes and made him comfortable in his last few days on earth. His grandparents are the glue that holds the family together; it is because of them that Jeremy is so close with his cousins. It is very rare that you see a family unit like theirs. I am honored to be a part of this family.
Friday, we will honor his grandma and celebrate his life.
Goodbye Grandpa Mason, you will be missed.

Very touching words. I hope he is at peace.
