In Loving Memory

Well the past week/5 days have been really really hard on me & my family. My Grandpa Chuck Graham passed away on Sunday May 27, 2012 at 11:40am. His birthday was May 17 He had just turned 81 years old. He went into the hospital on Friday May 18 because he was having trouble breathing. We found out on Wed May 23 that he had lung cancer and that it was the fast moving kind of cancer & that there was really nothing we could do for him except keep him comfortable. He was gone by Sunday. I am so so thankful that we had those few good days with him. He loved having Libby in bed with him and visiting with his family. He was such a good man & he had such unconditional love for my grandma.

I love how he considered my grandma so much even though he was going to pass away. We were going to take him home & have him on Hospice but he said "NO, I just want my family here at the hospital that's all I want." He did not want to go home because it would have been to much on my grandma to take care of him after everyone had went home for the night. Which makes since but I just love how he considered how hard it was going to be on her & that he wanted to make things as easy as possible for her. I just love that kind of love he had for her.

He did pass away peacefully with his loving family all around him & holding my grandmas hand (which is what he wanted.) He was my last Grandpa I lost my 1st one passed away the day after my birthday in 2008 my 2nd one on Nov 25, 2011 & now him. It is just so hard on me. I have always had my grandpas in my life until now & now I don't know what to do. I miss them both so so much. I pray I will get to see them both once again when God decides to call me home. Oh Glorious Day!!!!!!


This is at Christmas. 

 
He LOVED it when Libby would pull on his oxygen cord.
