Iowa

From the 14th -16th Alex and I drove to Maquoketa, Iowa to attend the Funeral of Grandma Shady who passed away on Monday, the 11th. She was well beloved not only by her family but all who knew her. Her life was dedicated to serving others in any way possible. You never felt as a stranger around Grandma Shady. If you had no where to go for the Holiday's you were always welcome to her house and you always felt welcome. We are all better for knowing such a great individual. Though we were not biological descendents, we were treated as such, for she truly demonstrated the pure love of Christ. For a lady who gave all and yet gained all. May you rest in peace Grandma.
