Texas Funeral

The ViewingHe was buried with this child's note in his hands.

Before the funeral there was a family gathering.

3 tries and these 4 still couldn't be still!

Jimbo's family

Marie's family...

Our side of the family...
Classic shot of Elisabeth. She told everyone that Grandpa's spirit was gone.

Wendy's side of the family...

They closed the casket and wheeled him into the chapel.

We all got to participate in the funeral and share memories. Perhaps some more could be added into the comments.

At the gravesite, Grandpa was given full military honors, which was VERY touching.

He must have liked it a lot.

They presented the flag to Wendy.

The grave was dedicated, then we hung about a bit...

Jimbo with more family.

Teaching about the temple (Mesa Temple engraved on headstone).

We went back on Mother's Day.

Thanks for everything Grandpa!!!

PS - some videos...
