Grandpa Hubbard's Funeral

Andy's maternal grandmother passed away in February.
Her funeral was March 1st.

Andy and his sister Lyndi who lives in Tennessee...

Some of the girl cousins...
It was the first time we had seen cousin Katie (second from the left) since returning from her mission in late December.

I love Matt's face in this one...

Some of the guy cousins...and Matt was making that face on purpose...

The funeral was beautiful.
Andy was asked to speak and he did such a nice job.
Oren Hubbard was a good man and well loved by his family and friends.
I accompanied on the piano while all the grandkids and great grandkids sang I Am A Child of God.

This headstone of Charles Wesley is in the Willard cemetery where Grandpa Hubbard was buried.  Charles is Grandpa Hubbard's Great Grandfather.  He sent his wagon with his son to carry Heber C Kimball and Brigham Young on their way to their mission in England when they cried out to their families "Hurrah for Israel".

Andy and his brothers and cousins were pallbearers...



Nancy is such a tender woman and I'm sure it was so hard for her to lay her father to rest.





Nancy and her siblings...


Andy and his siblings...

The wonderful Bryan family that I married in to...

My older two kids missed the first day of their new trimester.  I'm glad the three of them were able to come.  We left Ben at school (as we have with other funerals of his great grandparents) since he would have not understood and been a handful to keep track of and happy :)

Abby's embarrassed by this pic since she thought everyone was making silly faces but she was the only one that did.  Although, I must say, she tends to make silly faces in every picture

I love these pictures of Andy and his mom :)
