Tough Week

We are back home at our place now.  It has been a tough week this week for mum.  This time last week her lovely dad Gdad died peacefully.  Mum was lucky that she was able to make it up to his place in time to spend his last day with him.  It sure was tough, but such a privileged to be by his side holding his hand and telling him how much he was loved as he passed.

This is mums mum and dad on their wedding day.  Dad was 19 and mum was only 17 - and they had to get a court order in order to get married, and they did not have their parents permission.  Their landlords were their witnesses with only a couple of mums sisters there.  Mum was pregnant with big uncle and their marriage lasted for 44 years until Mum died in 1995.  They sure look sweet in this photo - quite the lookers!!

Dad was lucky.  He found a lovely lady to love in the last year of his life.  So there is still hope in your 70's of finding true love.  She looked after him and made him very happy.  How lucky to have two lovely ladies in his life.

We love you Gdad.
