Mor Far (by Lindsay)

This past week has been a sad week for our family.

On Wednesday we lost my dear grandfather, Mor Far, to a stroke at the age of 89.

Mor Far was such an incredible family man...a twin brother, a husband, a father of five, a grandfather of fourteen and a great-grandfather of thirteen.

He and his twin brother, John, married their childhood sweethearts, Mary and Katie, who also happened to be sisters.  They have spent their entire lives together and were married for over 60 years.  They were an incredible example of love for our entire family.  

Our children shared a special bond with Mor Far.  Although they never met Mor Mor (my grandmother), we will continue to share our precious memories of both her and Mor Far with them. 

Mor Far, we love you and miss you terribly.  But we know that you are now dancing in the sky with your beloved Mor Mor :)
