Grandpa

You have all probably read this already, but I thought I would post it just in case. The following update from Uncle Rex was forwarded by Mom and Dad on December 24th:

Dear Brothers, Dear Sisters,

We feel we should write to you about Daddy. We have seen in just the last few weeks a considerable decline in Daddy¹s stamina. (and all the synonyms apply: strength, energy, endurance, vigor etc.) These last few days he is sleeping most of the time, he eats very little, and he is noticeably weaker. It appears that the time we¹ve been praying for, when he can depart this mortal existence and join Mama in a better place, is drawing near. However, he may very well fool us. He has before. We have no way of predicting how long he might continue. It could be anywhere from a few days to several months but because of how rapidly he has weakened in the last two weeks we really don¹t think it will be months.

We surely love our Daddy. We only pray that his last days will be comfortable and his passing joyful.

With all our love,
Rex and Jo

I honestly can't imagine having better grandparents than Grandma and Grandpa Walker. We are a very blessed family.
