Rest in Peace
1916-2004

Grandpa died this morning due to complications during his dialysis treatment.

This is the image I created to honor him back in January
during my first month in my PAD project.

The image I took won a 3rd place ribbon in b&w portrait seen here:

He was so happy to hear that my photo of him had earned me a ribbon.

I'm very glad to have had the opportunity to spend time with him
over this past year since he moved back to Illinois.

He will be missed.
