  This morning my Uncle Frank was promoted to glory.  He and my Aunt Amy have essentially been like grandparents to me since mine passed away when I was a kid.  Aunt Amy is my grandpa's cousin and they do not have any kids of their own.  This month they would be celebrating their 77th wedding anniversary!  Here they are below, 77 years ago!!  That's 1931!!  Crazy!  Look how pretty Aunt Amy is!

  

  
  
  This is them last Christmas with my mom and dad.  They have lived on their own on a farm up until about 2 years ago when they were in a nursing home.  They are 98 years old.  Aunt Amy is still alive, and as I hear, they have only been apart once in their lives when Uncle Frank was in the hospital a few years ago.  I am sad we didn't get to visit when we were there in November, perhaps we can see Aunt Amy in February.  I don't want to seem morbid, but I suspect she will soon be joining him in heaven.  I hate to think of her waking up tomorrow morning without him there.  Please keep Aunt Amy in your prayers, and my family as well as they are pretty exhausted!
