Dad's Headstone unveiled this morning

Hello all,

This morning mom invited the family to the cemetery before the reunion for the unveiling of my father's headstone. It was a somber affair. As we each waited for the others to arrive, small talk passed the time. To our right was my father's gravesite. My mother had concealed his headstone until everyone could arrive. Soon, my grandmother, Lucile, arrived with my Aunt Kathy and Uncle Tom. We were present.

After a few words from my mom, she asked me to remove the towel which she had used to cover the stone. On her word, I removed the towel and stepped aside. I stood to the side and took it all in. The headstone looked great mom. I loved the way you incorporated both of your signatures.







Here is a picture of my Grandfather's stone.




Dad... Grandpa Scott.. I miss you both very much. Thank you for watching over me.

Your son and grandson

-Andy
