Great-Grandma Gezon

This past week Jana and I were in Grand Rapids on Tuesday and Wednesday for the visitation and funeral for Jana's Grandma Gezon, who recently passed away. She lived 94 years, and by the end of her life she was suffering and ready to move on to heaven. We are very sad that she is no longer with us and we will miss her terribly, but we are also happy that she is finally at peace.

The week before she died and with the end of her life near, Jana went to Grand Rapids to say goodbye to her grandmother and to show her Drew one last time. Drew snuggled right in, grabbed his great-grandma's hand, and they both fell asleep! We are happy that Drew got the chance to meet his great-grandmother a couple times and we are thrilled that Drew was a source of joy for great-grandma Gezon during her final days. She told everyone who visited about her great-grandson Andrew.
