Last of the Grandparents



Yesterday afternoon, my wife's grandmother (paternal side) passed away.

Erma was the last.  The final of our (combined) 8 grandparents to leave this earth.

Erma 2-13-15 (age 88)

Cecil 2-2-15 (age 97)  WWII VETERAN

Marie 4-8-06 (age 88)

Coy 3-7-06 (age 83) WWII VETERAN, 3 Purple Hearts

Johnny 10-30-02 (age 83)  WWII VETERAN, Purple Heart

Chester 4-5-99 (age 84)  WWII VETERAN

Josephine 7-8-98 (age 87)

Dorothy 6-24-96 (age 69)

An average lifespan just shy of 85 years among them.

Almost 700 combined years.  WOW


What a legacy they have left to their families.

Out for now.......
