Well, Lance's grandpa was 91 and had some health problems the last couple of years. He was getting weaker and in pain from arthritis - he passed away the end of May. His funeral was in Driggs, Idaho (by Jackson Hole) where they lived in the same house that he built for 60 years. Lance turned 37 the same week and was fortunate to have lived this long without losing anyone close to him, so up until this month, he has had all four grandparents living, relatively close too, in Idaho. We went to the funeral the first week of June. George Jensen was laid to rest with full military honors (having served in WWII), with the gun salute, flugal horn, & official flag presentation... It was an honor to be associated with him. We have many good memories.
Here are the pallbearers - Lance in the middle with his two brothers (the three tall guys), then three cousins.
These are a couple shots of the family luncheon following the funeral. Lance ended up sitting at the little kids' table with some nieces & nephews, then there is a picture of the 'adult' table.
Here is Lance with his sister Natalie at the gravesite....
