Just be up a doing!


That was a saying that my Grandfather always said. On Monday was Grandpa Evans' funeral. Even though is was hard to say good-bye it was wonderful to be surrounded by family that all loved Grandpa. Grandma and Grandpa have 8 children, 42 grandchildren, and 74 great grandchildren. Everyone , expect for a missionary in the MTC, was there. It was wonderful to see the legacy that Grandpa created that continues with each one of us. The funeral was really nice and everything went well, just as Grandpa would have wanted. Grandpa was taken from the church to the grave site in a horse pulled carriage, and then at the graveside service they had an empty saddle procession where a empty horse rode past the grave symbolizing that that Grandpa was a true cowboy through and through! We love Grandpa and miss everything about him and can't wait for the day to see him again!
