J'adore mon grand-père

Once there was a little boy
He loved to joke and play
He loved his mom and dad
And his 3 brothers and 3 sisters too.
He grew up in the great state of Idaho
And was as handsome as handsome could be

And the boy was happy.

The boy grew and went on a mission
On his mission he met a girl
When their missions were finished,
The Logan Temple they did go

And the boy was happy.

The couple were happy
They started a family 
From California to Utah they settled
With 4 girls and 1 boy
The couple was very busy
The boy traveled around the world
Working with numbers

And the boy was happy

Time passed and the 5 kids grew
The couple moved to Washington D.C.
Served two missions
And eventually had 18 grandchildren
With many great-grandchildren too
His posterity was blessed

And the boy was happy.

The boy became older
And started to slow
Working out and golf he did continue to go
His heart had some maintenance
His bladder and kidney's too
But things weren't quite the same
Then on June 30, 2015, the boy returned home
To that God who gave him life

And the boy was happy.


I am so grateful for my grandpa.  I am so grateful for his testimony.  I am so grateful for the Gospel.  I am so grateful for the times I have spent learning and growing from him.
I love you grandpa
Until we meet again.
