Grandpa Wertz July 3, 1914 - October 20, 2012

with Kalissa, 2012

This man was an amazing person!  Funny, caring, hard working, supportive and he just never stopped, he really was like the energizer bunny; so much energy!!!  The world was able to have him for over 98 years!  How lucky anyone was that met him.  I'll forever be grateful that my children will have memories of spending time with him and what a special person he was.
 
Anna, Grandpa & Kalissa - Memorial Day 2011
As sad as I am that he is gone I can't help but wonder about all the things he is telling grandma.  He missed her sooooo much!  Their reunion had to have been very sweet.

We happened to have been in Utah for the funeral of my dad's brother,  Uncle Steve over the weekend and were blessed to be with Grandpa as he left us.  His body was tired, he was peaceful and I'm sure he was happy that he finally graduated from this life.

 We will miss all the love, hugs and smiles from Grandpa but remember forever the lessons we learned from him, his strong testimony of the gospel and the priceless time we were able to spend with him.

Thanks for posting this! And I love the picture of him and Grandma Wertz. I've never seen a recent photo of her other than the posed ones hanging in their home. We'll all miss Grandpa.
