Remembering Grandpa
We celebrated the life of my grandpa, Bob Mitchell, this past week. What a wonderful man who will be greatly missed by friends and family. He always had a smile on his face and open arms for a hug. He loved spending time with family and we loved spending time with him. Monica and I were privileged enough to spend a trip touring Scotland and England with our grandparents, spent their 50th wedding anniversary together in Hawaii. They visited us multiple times while we attended North Park in Chicago. And we spent many trips in the RV to Pismo, Yosemite and Arizona. He had an excitement for life and sharing that love with others like no one I have ever known. He also loved Christ with everything in him and displayed that love through the way he treated others; he loved each person he came in contact with. There is so much more that I could say but for now; we will miss you very much grandpa and we'll see you again. We love you!
