In October we found out that Luke's grandpa, Lowell Kindinger, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in an accident. It was a really sad time for us and Luke's family. Luke and I made the almost two day drive to Ohio. All of the leaves were changing on the trees, so it was a long but beautiful drive.
The memorial service and funeral were a celebration of a life well lived. Luke's grandfather was one of the most compassionate and giving men I had ever met, and the turn out showed how much he meant to so many people.
Even when carrying the casket the grandchildren couldn't help but have smiles on their faces, which would have made him happy because he never lacked a smile on his. He is greatly missed.
I was able to meet a lot of the family that I had yet to, and see some places that were significant to Luke growing up. We also got to visit with one of his friends from PNG and see her house and the wonderful chickens that they had. i just had to get some pictures for my mom.
