A final goodbye

My grandpa and grandma Wright were cremated and while my grandma died in 2001 and my grandpa died in 2005 they were never laid to rest. Yesterday much of the family gathered at my Dad's hometown of Aitkin, Minnesota to say a final goodbye and lay my grandparents to rest.

My grandparents were turkey farmers for years. My grandpa sold his farm and hatchery business in 1972 and ended up selling insurance for New York Life and did that through the late 1980s. Other than insurance my grandpa also sold bows and tuned bows for hunters across the Midwest and was a heck of an archer himself.

This final picture is of my Dad in reflection on Sunday.
