Grandpa Al Smith
June 11 1922-September 21 2009
Grandpa died peacefully in his sleep early Monday morning. I am so happy that I took Isla to meet him last week. It's funny, but I just had a feeling that I needed to do it before I left for Illinois.
It was definitely his time. I still have a message from him on my voicemail that I had been saving for this reason. I don't know when I should delete it. He was calling me to congratulate me on Isla's birth. It is a sweet message.
All of my grandparents have now passed away. Let's hope Isla is lucky enough to have her grandparents around as long as I did.
