November 1920 - May 2012
Grandma Georgia Dutro, you will be greatly missed.
Grandma Georgia passed away a little unexpectedly, and we were all sad to see her go. All of Cameron's siblings were able to make their way to California for the funeral. It was a very sad situation, but we ended up having a wonderful time together.
We headed to Cali Thursday, May 24th. And of course we had to stop at Steak 'n Shake in Vegas. I am so excited they finally built one somewhat close by. Cameron got his favorite side by side Banana Chocolate Shake. They boys thought it was so cool how he drank it w/ 2 straws.
We had the funeral the following day. It was a really good service! Cameron's brother, Dad, cousin and Aunt spoke. They all did an amazing job. Following the service we had a yummy lunch. And well...Connor couldn't get enough of all the desserts.
Afterward we decided to take a few pictures of the boys. Stacie (Cam's sister) took this picture...isn't it adorable?!
After relaxing for a few minutes we headed to the burial. I loved this picture of Nancy so I couldn't resist adding it.
The boys putting flowers on the casket (or basket as Cade thought it was called). This was such a great learning experience for the boys. They had a lot of questions about death and where Grandma Georgia went to. They finally came to the conclusion that she has gone to Heaven to live w/ Heavenly Father and Jesus, along w/ Tucker ;) (the Long's dog that passed away a while ago).
I am so happy that we were able to make it to the funeral! It was such a good experience and we loved visiting with all the family.
