Celebration of Life
Last Sunday, we said Goodbye to GGPA (aka Great Grandpa Jack). It was a simple yet beautiful celebration of his life. Dad cooked (in true Gary fashion) and everything was of course homemade. For those of you who don't know my Dad, he truly is the best chef ever. He did however use this crazy new spice on the meat that made everyone cough as they entered the kitchen, but that did not stop us from enjoying his fantastic taco bar. Kathy gave a wonderful tribute to her Daddy focusing on his LIFE, LOVE, and the LEGACY he left behind. GGPA was a teacher and life long student of just about everything. I will always remember him for his well organized garage (something I admire - just ask Craig), his jogging suit/athletic wardrobe (he was an athlete till the end), his creepy ventriloquist doll (that doll scared me to death), and the LOVE he showed toward all of us. So here we are, celebrating his life, on this beautiful Sunday afternoon. We each wrote a wish or note to GGPA on a balloon and then released them into the sky for him to read. The cousins we're screaming into the sky, "We love you GGPA!" and then when the last balloon was no longer visible Jackson turned and said, "Nana, can we now have the cupcakes?" And WE did, just like GGPA would have wanted. xoxo
