Grandpa's hearts follow up

Little did I know how important the two deck of cards I made for my father-in-law would become.

Just a few weeks after the end of the family reunion my father-in-law had a massive coronary and passed away. As the family gathered with friends and family the cards came out and were passed around. Uncles, aunts, cousins and friends who haven't seen the young grand children were able to see a photo of "Grandpa's Hearts". They laughed and cried while remembering the past. It was a sad pleasure to stand back and watch.

I had one brother-in-law wrap me in a bear hug and express his thanks to me. It truly was my pleasure. Yes, I spent hours scanning but it wasn't a sacrifice as I did it because I wanted the photos. They just get the benefits of my labor.

I'm so thankful to Heritage Makers for those few precious days. The day Grandpa opened them and looked through them, laughing and remembering. Then the few sad days when family and friends remembered good days long past.

Thank you!!!
