Grandpa Buswell




My dear Grandpa passed away December 7, 2009. He was 88 and left an amazing legacy behind. My Grandpa was an amazing man and accomplished so many things in his life. He has made me want to be a better person and helped me see that anything is possible, if you just put your mind to it. We had his funeral on December 14, 2009 and it was such a special tribute to him. I miss him so much, but I am know he is happy, and most of all free of pain. My dear sweet Grandma is now without her sweetheart, but they had a wonderful life together. I was so fortunate to be able to spend alot of time in the last couple of years with my grandparents. When I lived in Ogden I only lived 10 minutes from them, and that was so nice to be able to take advantage of spending time in their home. The last month of my Grandpas life I was going over there twice a week to help take care of him. It was so hard to see him struggle and be in so much pain, but it was such an amazing experience as well. My Grandpa is someone I strive to be! I love you Grandpa!
