On Tuesday of last week my grandfather who we all called "Pops", was called up to his proper resting place in heaven.
My grandfather was laid to rest in a pecan wood casket in honor of his years he spent working on his side job - a pecan orchard.
Besides being mayor of Daphne for over 16 years and a pillar in the Christ the King Catholic Church, Pops was one of the greatest influences in my life. So many stories, life lessons, and all the support I could ever need.
He will be dearly missed but never forgotten.
We took quite a few pictures when the family was together and we will post those throughout the week.
Sorry to hear about the passing of "Pops" - our prayers are with you and your family. I know you had many fond memories of him and I hope they help sustain you and your family during this diffult time.
