Idaho Sunset
Last week my Grandpa Dixon passed away. He was 95 and lived a good life. We went to Idaho over the weekend to celebrate his life and spend time with my family. Saturday night, after the funeral, we walked around the farm and listened to stories about my grandpa. We were blessed with this beautiful sunset.
We will miss you Grandpa.

Oh no – so sorry about your loss.
I’m sorry about your loss! What a beautiful sunset to send off your grandpa!
I love it when God gives us a reminder that He is still here in the midst of sorrow and grief; a beautiful sunset for what I’m certain, was a beautiful life. Hugs Maria
To have lived to that age and to be remembered lovingly by family is what I think we all should strive for in our lives. I’m sorry for your loss, Maria!
I am so sorry, Maria. I agree with Debra… what a great reminder of his life and the fact that he is still present with you!
So sorry for your loss Maria, treasure the memories you had of him. Blessings. Robin Sue

Sorry to hear of the loss of your Grandpa. What a beautiful photo!
He was a great man. Just like all of Maria’s family. We actually had a great time remembering Grandpa Dixon. He was a loving man of Faith, integrity , and sense of humor. I wish everyone could have heard the words spoken of him this past weekend, truly inspiring. Maria has great aunt’s and uncles’ and cousins’. We really had such a great time remembering Grandpa on the farm.

Great photo. Nice tribute. So sorry for your loss, Maria.
My grandmother passed at 95 almost 2 years ago. Fortunately I’d been in the habit of sitting with her after church every Sunday, and despite years of distance, I’d been able to learn all sorts of things about her life and my family. Beautiful picture.
Grandpa’s Home now, and you will see him again. You know the Eternal Father’s plan.
You have a great blog; enjoy the recipes, and that is a beautiful picture of the sunset at Grandpa’s farm; very apropos.
Thinking and praying for your family!
I’m so sorry Maria. Sending hugs and prayers!
I’m so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family <3
What a beautiful way of saying goodbye. It’s never easy to lose a loved one.
This photo reminds me of my hometown in Idaho. Gorgeous!
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. It sounds like things were very peaceful. I just lost my grandfather 29 days ago – I know how difficult it can be, while simultaneously being reassuring, because they lived such amazing lives and passed away at peace.
I am so sorry Maria. My condolences to you and your family. <3
