Grandpa Tanner

Although it didn't come as a surprise, letting go of Grandpa Tanner is hard to do!  
He was 
happy, 
generous, 
honest, 
thankful, 
encouraging...
the list could go on and on.
Grandpa taught his eight children, and 50+ grandkids what it means to be a Tanner.
I am proud to carry his name.
 Grandpa and his boys :)
 He is leaving a rich legacy that embodies all things noble and good.

 I will miss eating Red Vines together and greeting him with a hug and kiss at each visit.

And... to lighten the mood:  HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Heather!  
Can't wait to be reunited with all 3 of my siblings for Grandpas funeral next week.  
I love being a Tanner!
