Matt's Grandma (Nana) passed away a few weeks ago, so Matt went down to L.A. to be with family. He was asked to do the graveside service, which was an honor for him.
Nana had a beautiful backyard, much of which isn't doing so well as she wasn't able to care for it anymore, but the roses are still brilliant!
Some of Matt's extended family. He enjoyed getting to spend time with everyone, remember Nana with them and even learn more about her through their memories.
Alison and Abigail were able to come too, all the way from England. Abby is just over one year old!
Zoe and Beth were there as well. It's hard to get pictures of Zoe with a smile since she hates the camera, but Uncle Matt always tries!
We sure wish Caleb and Abby could have more time together!
Matt came home for the next week and then returned the following weekend for the memorial service.
His dad joined him for the trip as well.
Saying goodbye was hard, since Nana has always been a part of life, but we're glad that she is at Home with Jesus now. Death always brings the truly important things of life into perspective.
