{goodbye}

My Granddaddy, Landon Osborne, passed away last night. He was so tough, and hung on for longer than we thought he would. But he just couldn't do it any longer, and I'm relieved that he is no longer suffering. I will miss him so much, and am so glad that I have my own Landon to remind me of him.

Here he is with my Grandmother on their wedding day, September 14, 1947. Weren't they just a lovely couple?

And here we are the day I told them I was pregnant. I just want to squeeze him, he was so cute!



And here he is with my Landon last summer. Such a sweet moment.



Love you and miss you Granddaddy!

    It's so hard to lose a family member and I can't even imagine the emotions that develope now with your kids involved in their lives. How sweet is that they actually got to meet their granddaddy and spend time with him! Those pictures you will forever cherish! I'm so sorry.
