Great-Great Grandpa Meyer


I recieved some sad new this morning. My Great-Grandpa Meyer passed away Sunday night after celebrating his young 99th birthday. I am blessed that he was able to move back to Salt Lake in the past few years and that he was able to meet his Great-Great Grandchildren.

Here is a picture of the 5 generations!

We love you and will miss you!
