Opa's, Oma's and Grandma's, Grandpa's

As I sit here sorting through pictures I had forgotten that I had taken some of Grandpa London's funeral. So these pictures of my sweeties which Great Grandpa London, Great Grandpa Eugene and his wife Great Granny, my Grandpa Ted, and my Opa and Oma are watching over from Heaven. Ashley had the great opportunity to know her Great Grandpa London and she loves him and misses him very much. Kylie won't even know who he is without us talking about him. Both my girls were unable to receive the wonderful privilege of knowing my Grandpa Ted or my Opa, Oma (Ashley was just 11 months old when Oma passed) or Troy's Grandpa Eugene, however they have the privilege of hearing the memories Troy and I, our siblings and our parents have of them. You see 10 years ago this month my Opa (grandpa for those who don't speak dutch) went to meet his parents and siblings in heaven. Roughly 4 years later my Oma joined him. A few months after my Opa passed my Grandpa Ted went to join his parents. Troy's Grandpa Eugene passed just before we meet 12 years ago and he was followed about 8 years later by his beloved wife Great Granny. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have the grandparents and grandparent in-laws that I have. Enjoy the pictures!!
