My Grampa Brown died today, after a very long and brave battle with cancer. I have a lot to write about him but tonight I am just going to post some pictures. When his cancer first came back and didn’t look so good, Mark surprised me with a Christmas present of 2 tickets to Utah so we could visit my grandparents. It was the most thoughtful Christmas present I’ve ever been given. We didn’t think Grampa would make it for a few more months but both Mark and I got one more trip up there to visit: Mark in July of this year and I an August. Anyway, the pictures are from that Jan. 2007 trip with Mark.

I miss him very much. We were close, especially after my dad died. His funeral will occur as I’m having my c-section.
