Trip to Denver, Colorado - August 13th - 20th
My Grandpa Rasmussen passed away August 10th. We had just got back home from visiting Heather and Aaron and Mom called us at around midnight. Grandpa had caught pneumonia in March but he had been doing better so it came as a surprise. I am just thankful that I got to know him really well, since he came to Tucson every winter since I was around 13 or so.

Thankfully our work gives us bereavement pay so that Ethan and I could both drive up to Denver to spend time with the family and go to the funeral and burial. I love what was mentioned at the funeral that family meant everything to Grandpa and that it wasn't so much what he did but what he didn't do. I am very thankful for Grandpa's example and I just want to keep true to the end.
