My Grandpa Smith...


...has finished his journey here on earth. My Grandpa Scott Smith passed away peacefully on Monday morning. He reunited was with his sweetheart and his son Joel, my daddy. My grandpa was such an awesome man. He was easily loved by anyone who crossed his path. Scott was known as a great man of service. He would do anything for anyone who needed it. Grandpa had such a strong testimony of the gospel and a love for Jesus Christ. He loved to work in the temple as a sealer. But his greatest love was his Family...he has 8 kids, 5 girls and 3 boys. He has 30 grandkids and 50 plus great-grandkids! We keep multiplying! My grandpa and grandma always had a way to make each and every one of us feel special. They always made the effort to make all of our school and church functions. They would drive all over the country to do so. They would also call us on our birthdays every year. I am going to miss my grandpa very much but know he is in a much better place. He isn't suffering anymore and I'm sure he is smiling from ear to ear! I'm thankful for the example he was to me and my family. My husband loved him very much also. My girls have fond memories of Great Grandpa Smith that I'm sure they will cherish forever. "Grandpa, give my daddy a big hug from me ok? Tell him I love him very much and that we will be ok. Also, give grandma a hug and tell her thanks for the memories that we have of you and her. We will all be together again someday. Love you grandpa Smith and may you have the time of your life!"

  2. I didn't know your grandpa, but I got the goosebumps reading this. He sounds like an amazing man. Our thoughts are with you and your sweet family, because we know that even when we realize our loved ones are in a better place, there is always a touch of raw sadness in missing them.
