Happy 75th Birthday, Grandpa!

March 20, 2016 by Heidi Olsen Leave a Comment

Dear Grandpa,

Happy 75th Birthday! Happy Spring! We love you! We miss you so much! We miss our daily phone conversations with grandpa.

So much has happened with our family since you went to heaven almost 4 years ago. We’ve had 2 more babies. One baby went to be with you and grandma. One baby stayed here with us on earth. His name is Nehemiah. We have dogs now. We call them our wolf pack. The kids are growing up. We have teenagers and toddlers! Merci is in high school, Graci is in middle school and Noah is in pre-kindergarten. Our shop is growing leaps and bounds every day.

We are thinking of you today. You are still very much a part of our family. We see you everyday in daddy, Noah, and Nehemiah. We are thankful you lived long enough to see us buy our first house and start making it our home. We talk about you when planting the garden every year remembering telling you about the first garden we planted in our home.

Thank you for being the amazing person you were in spite of the challenges you faced. Thank you for the advice that only you could give us as a dad. You share your birthday month with Heidi and Hezekiah now. You shared your wisdom with us. You taught us how to be strong and most importantly to LOVE! Thank you for being our grandpa and loving us!

Until we meet again.

Lots of Love,

Your son, daughter-in-love, granddaughters and grandsons ❤️

Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
~ 1 Timothy 6:12

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ
~ 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
~ John 16:33

Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
~ Isaiah 40:28-31

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
~ Romans 8:31
