As many of you know, the bond that I share with my grandparents has always been very special to me. I have always felt very blessed to have had the opportunity to grow up with both my Grandpa and Grandma Smith and Grandpa and Grandma Lininger so close to me and for them to be such an important part of my life. It has been especially wonderful to see the relationships that they have formed with Caden and Kinsie and the joy that they have all brought to each other's lives (as you will see below, all of the photos that we have of my Grandpa Bill are of him looking at his great-grandchildren and smiling!). Sadly, we lost our Grandpa Bill on Thursday. There are not enough words to describe how much we love our grandpa and just how much we are going to miss him. He was an amazing father, grandfather and friend and has had such a positive impact on our lives. We take comfort in knowing that he is no longer in pain and that we were able to share so many wonderful memories with him. We love you Grandpa!
