A TRIBUTE TO MY GRANDPA RIGGS

Grandpa Riggs up at the cabin in Pindale!
I am not even sure how to start my blog today. My Grandpa Riggs passed away this morning at around 3:00am and I feel so much sorrow to have lost such an awesome and wonderful man. However I know that he was in a lot of pain and I am sure he feels so good to be "home"! I chose this picture to post because this is the last time I saw my Grandpa. He was at my little sister Tenilles baby blessing. My Grandpa had polio for years and yet I always remember him with a big smile on his face. He was very spiritual and loved animals. You could always find him in the temple and everyone knew who he was! Grandpa you will be missed by so many who love you. Thank you so much for being such a great example to us all and for being the spiritual giant that you were!
