Goodbye to Great Grandma S and Great Grandpa H

It has been a pretty rough month for Mom and Dad's grandparents.  Dad lost his grandmother, Great Grandma S, who died on June 18th.  She had been suffering from Alzheimer's disease for several years, and couldn't put two words together towards the end.  While she was still mentally with us, she adored Kara.  We had given her pictures of Kara as a baby that consistently got lost (which was one of our first clues her mental facilities were degrading), though she used to tell us that someone was stealing the pictures because Kara was just so cute!

Mom lost her Grandpa, Great Grandpa H, who was also suffering the effects of Alzheimer's.  He broke his hip in June and never quite recovered.  He suffered a stroke on the morning of July 10th and died later that day.  He only met Kara and Emily a couple of times, but he thought they were both pretty awesome.
