sad days for the glads

Our oldest son's wife, Shaylynn, passed away on March 19th. She has been struggling with health problems for many years. She was almost in constant pain and had difficulty in eating. She has had many surgeries and has been in and out of the hospital almost constantly. It is very sad that she is gone but She is now in a better place where there in no pain and suffering. We hurt to see the pain that Todd has had to go through at this early time in his life. We know that life will go on but takes time for the hurt to go away from the separation but like the song goes

"All is Well"

We needed some time away so we went to California to visit with our Grandchildren, Nathan, Megan and Tyler. There parents were there also. We had a great time hugging and telling stories. We may not see them for more than a couple of years as we are planning to go on a Mission for 18 months. Nathan had a great time teaching Grandma how to play the Piano



We went bowling with all of the kids. It was great fun. Tyler was a little weak on his throw, A man from the Alley had to come and push the ball so it would get to the pins one time. Me, Marlene, Megan, Nathan, and Tyler with Angels help played. Roy was kind enough to pretend to have a sore back so we could play.

We drove to Las Vegas and stayed one Night before getting back to Salt Lake all tired out. Angel called and said the after we left that Tyler packed his bag and asked her to take him to see Grandma and Grandpa. We are glad to be back home.

We go to the doctor to get our Physicals Friday. Time is going by!

No, really! I do have a bad back! Twisting my back to throw a fourteen pound ball down a wooden lane is nothing but an invitation to weeks of lower back pain. Right before our trip to Hawaii, not playing was the smart thing to do, if I say so myself! ('Cause I just did ... ;) )
