Sad Day

Grandpa Smith died yesterday. This is Scott and the rest of the Smith kid's grandpa. Happily Scott was able to fly up from Fallon (were he has been working the last several weeks) and see Grandpa before he passed. Candace and Charlie flew up yesterday and I believe also got to say goodbye. Grandpa Smith was fully aware of what was happening and chose to decline medical treatment. The last few years have been very hard on him and he was ready to go. We are happy that he is with the Lord and his son Charlie. Thoughts and prayers go out to the Smith family.

I also invite everyone to take some time today to reflect on the events of September 11, 2001. Pray for everyone who was there, those who died and especially their loved ones. Also pray for the soldiers who have died in the War on Terror, those who served and those who continue to serve our incredible country.
