grandpa's burial

Because of government cutbacks the VA could not bury Grandpa until Monday. So today those of who were still able to be in Utah headed to the Veterans Cemetery for the internment. It was a short and sweet affair with close family. Brad gave a sweet and touching prayer, we sang some songs and then said goodbye to Grandpa again. Like before, pictures say it better than I can.

Today's pall bearers.

Cami, Aunt Kathleen and Paige.

Kaylee lending a comforting arm to Grandma, so sweet.

Gathering flowers and stars from the arrangements to remember the event.

The kids loved having their own stars.

The plot was right next to Grandpa's brother. * Bryce and Dad.

It was a beautiful day.

All that's missing is a mini-snickers bar.
