Ward family reunion, August 2010

Of course Aliya found food...

Are you READY for some
FOOTBALL!















This is family council in which Grandpa addressed us~ then Russell piped up and said he had something to say too.  Apparently his toes wiggle, his knuckles kinda hurt, and his hair just stick up and mommy has to comb it!  Okay....



Again with the food...





Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! (Still didn't wake up...)




The Ward family!

Farewell Grandpa- Eldon Loveland Ward, May 21, 1924~ August 1, 2010











Sad day- Great Grandpa Ward suffered a stroke last May that left him quite frustrated!  Initially, he lost about 20 years of his memory, still convinced he and Grandma were still on their mission in North Carolina and it was time to come home!  He spent the last two months trying to convince the family to help him pack.  As time went on he had a series of mini-strokes as well as a condition called pre-leukemia that they were no longer able to treat because the treatment was possibly what caused the blood clots.  He slowly deteriorated, but only felt really ill the last short while.  On Sunday our whole family held a special fast asking that he be relieved of his earthly duties, and he died that day at around 5:30 p.m.  Pretty powerful prayin' family if you ask me!  Well, Grandpa, apparently you were
right, it was time to go home. Thank you for the legacy and family name you left behind.  


Farewell 
'til we meet again....
