On April 7 of this year, Mommy's Grandpa Barber passed away in his sleep. We went to visit them often so I know who he is. Mommy always liked Grandpa Barber and even went on a week long trip with him one time when she was about nine years old. He was 82 years old!
Here's a picture of Grandpa Barber:
This past week, on May 13th, Mommy's Great Aunt Ethel Minnick passed away while under our care at Nana (Connie) and Papa's house. The night before, Mommy and Aunt Patty stayed up with Aunt Ethel all through the night because she was critical. Aunt Ethel was staying with Nana and Papa for the past few weeks. Nana was such a great nurse for Ethel but at the end, Nana needed lots of help. So Mommy and Daddy did everything that they could to make things easier. Mommy did almost all of Nana's housework for a couple of days, and Daddy helped too by moving furniture and doing odds and ends things. We went to visit Ethel and Don as much as we could and every time they came into town - we made sure to go spend time with them.
Here is a picture of Aunt Ethel and Uncle Don:
Grandpa Barber's wife, Martha, is holding up very well and carries his wedding band on her necklace.Uncle Don is also doing well and is a great guy (he always picks on me though)!
We will all always remember those who were dear to us and we will always miss them.
