We sure love each other, don't we?

That was what my grandfather used to say to me. Uncle Garth and I carried on that tradition after grandpa died. Uncle Garth was a true hero. He loved his family and friends deeply and tenderly. He was like a second father to my siblings and I. He will be truly missed. Thanks Uncle Garth for everything. Your example is woven into the most tender parts of who I am. I love you much and will forever be changed by your example of love and integrity. Uncle Garth passed away yesterday morning after a very long battle with kidney disease. This picture was taken September 9 the day before we left for our mission.
