Mawmaw & Pawpaw My grandfather passed away yesterday. I was on my way to work when I got the phone call. Pawpaw had just gotten out of the hospital two days prior but wasn't doing well. Luckily my dad was still in town and was able to visit with him for the past few weeks. If you don't know, my dad comes from a rather large family. My grandparents have been married for 67 years and they have 17 children (my dad is the 2nd oldest). I have about 54 first cousins just on my dad's side. I found out that my grandmother had told Pawpaw it was ok for him to go and that she would be ok. About 20 minutes later, he took his last breath. It was a hard day for all of us. Please keep my family in your prayers.
