For those of you who do not know the Whites, they were some of the most amazing people in this whole world. this is one of many pictures we have of them, throughout their lives. They were so close to all of my family, that we called them Grandma and Grandpa. When I was younger we went on a trip with them to Utah and to Wyoming, Idaho those states...the list goes on. We learned that they had "pet" names for each other and they called each other Daddy and Sweetie. Those names stuck, and we ended up calling them Daddy and Sweetie instead of Grandma and Grandpa. They were my parents music teachers, principals, and "adopted parents". A few weeks ago, Grandma White passed on. It was really hard to see them be separated from each other, since they were so close to each other. Then, just this past week Grandpa White passed on. Today there was a funeral and memorial service in his behalf. It was a really touching service, and I loved it. It is really interesting to go to a funeral for a member of the church, because there are tears, and sadness, BUT at the same time there is laughter, and memories, and hope for the future, because we know that we will be able to see them again, and that now they are both together again. I'm SO thankful for that knowledge, that we WILL be able to see them again!
