Just a Quick Update!

The Holmes Spot has been on hiatus, but will be returning this coming Tuesday!  I can't wait to get back to my regular posting duties.

FYI - my great grandfather passed away peacefully on June 20 at 3:30PM. He was surrounded by family, and the last words he heard as he took his final breath were "I love you, Dad. Just rest." He was 100 years young, and he loved every minute of life, all the way to the end.

    So glad you were able to accompany your grandmother and be a support for her during this time. I'm sure she was glad to be able to say her good-byes to her dad before he passed. You will have a special place in heaven for what you have done. Hope to meet you there someday.

    What a wonderful, lovely man your Great-grandfather sounded. Everyone should hear those words at the end. Bless you and your family.

    Thank you for sharing that with us. Death is a sad thing to a lot of people. But only because you say good bye for just a little while. Sounds like you shared a beautiful time with your Grandfather. Who could ask for anything more.. Toni Keen
