RIP papaw "Duck"

Well sad to say my other grandfather, "Duck" we called him, passed away quick due to a heart attack. So me and Emery hopped on a plane to Atlanta, GA to be there for my dad. We got to visit with alot of family that I havn't seen in years. They all liked Emery too...she was again a comforting angel to everyone. In the midst of all the sorrow there was a little humor present: The preacher was a little off...especially when he said in his prayer that "Jesus died on the cross 4,000 years ago"...ha ha and that "heaven had RED streets of Gold" he was trying to incorporate heaven with my pawpaw's fav color, red. Oh yeah and while we were all at the grave site, a huge arrangement fell on the casket that was suppose to look like an eagle (from skynyrd, freebird i guess) but it looked like a baby chicken with gold wings...it was a sad day but hey ya gotta smile soon or later. It reminded me of the funeral clip from the movie Elizabethtown..... you only have to watch the first minute of the clip to get what i am talking about...it's funny.....













Here are some pictures of my aunts and cousins in atlanta.....
