Gage is HERE!! He's almost as tall as me! (5'8") around 5'6"! Looks more like his Dad all the time. Beautiful smile and such a good kid. He's a typical teenager LOL texting, movies, (we don't have video games until later), biking, eating lol! Pictures to follow. Walt's passing.... During this time Hubby's Dad started going down hill. He was confused at times and aggressive at times. He was hospitalized and the placed in a nursing home. He passed away on July 28th in the afternoon. Thankfuly all his family surrounded him til the end. Hubby's Dad was 93. He was ready, he had very bad eyesight, diabetes using insulin, couldn't walk using a wheelchair and his hands didn't work very well either. He was a vigorious man in his day. He retired at age 57. He did sooo many things. Woodworking he loved, fashioning so many things for all our homes. He loved fishing, hunting, picking berries, sitting out on the dock listening to nature. He loved life. When his health started declining it was frustrating for him to not be able to do things like before, but he did as much as he could.
