Norman and Sandy were together for almost 53 years and I mean together. This picture was taken out on a boat tour of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.
Grandpa love to help even combing Anna's tangles out before church.
Grandpa Norman love to play and Molly even got Grandma to come play frisbee. See what I mean about always being together. :-)
Ok I had to put these in here because Norman loved to hunt, we saw these deer when we were in Nauvoo, Illinois. The Mississippi river is right behind this group of trees. Good thing he didn't have his gun with him that day.
Norman was a very spiritual man. He loved our Savior and was very knowledgeable of the scriptures. He was a great teacher.
He enjoyed traveling but more important he loved being with his grandkids. He is probably the most playful grandpa I know. Actually I don't know if he really enjoyed traveling, I think it was more of just being with his extended family,
Anna loves her huggy grandpa. He always had a hug for everyone.
One of the kindest things anyone has ever said to me was by my father in law who after hugging me goodbye when I was dropping my in laws off at the airport said, "You are a good mother, love you hon"
He will be greatly missed.
My son also wrote a lovely tribute. You can find it here.

Thanks for your kind words Tami.
ReplyDeleteLandon made a very insightful comment that we couldn't imagine any family gathering without Grandpa. Certainly he made each of us feel cherished. His love for his family energized him. Gratefully our memories of him will continue to be a part of our gatherings and his influence will continue to add to the goodness of our own lives.

Thank you Tami. That was a wonderful tribute. His love for each of us had a profound effect upon our lives. I can't wait to see you when you guys get here. Paula
ReplyDeleteVery nice pictures and memories. I hope you guys are hanging in there. Let me know if there is anything you need, or if I can do anything while you are here. I know there is plenty of family, but we have a spare room if anyone needs it. Love you guys!

ReplyDeleteAmen!

Wow! Sounds like a terrific man, I am sure you will all really miss him. Amazing how those little compliments at unexpected times seem to mean the most to us. I love people who are not afraid to say kind things whenever they feel them. What a blessing to have such a great father in law!

Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles?
ReplyDeleteI mean, what you say is important and all.
However imagine if you added some great photos or video clips to give your
posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with images
and videos, this blog could definitely be one of the best in
its niche. Amazing blog!
