Grandpa's Memory Table

At Grandpa's viewing and funeral, the family displayed pictures and memoribilia of Grandpa. I snapped pictures of the pictures shown here.

Can you see why Grandma fell in love w/him?

Grandpa worked at US Geneva Steel for 28 years. It was there that he lost his right leg (below the knee) when a steel car fell on him. The car was empty; good thing too,

because he would have been crushed if it wasn't.

He worked for 8 more years until he retired.

Grandpa NEVER called in sick or missed one day of work!
