Goodbye, Grandpa

Grandpa passed away peacefully this morning at 2 am. I am sad for the loss of his earthly presence, but I rejoice that he is caught up in God's eternal love and reunited with his beloved wife and daughter.

R.I.P. SSgt. USMC Grandpa: 1923 - 2009. You are missed.

Marines don't die, they just get called up to a higher duty. Semper fi!
