Our Bear

We have been celebrating the life of our sweet Bear. Tyler's grandfather passed away this week after moving here to Kansas from New Orleans about a month ago. It was a tough move since he had lived in his house for over 40 years but he was happy to be around family and we were so happy to have him here.

He had been sick in New Orleans and spent a lot of his month in Kansas in the hospital. But even still, we were able to have many meals together and went to visit often. Aliyah had tons of kisses for his nose every time we saw him at his new house or at the hospital - I loved the fact that Aliyah could care less if he was hooked up to tubes. She smiled big every time she saw him and would run to him for a hug and kiss.

It was great for Aliyah to have this time with her Bear (even though she probably won't remember him as she grows) and there was no doubt that Aliyah made Bear shine. They were quite a pair. We all loved being able to hug on him so much this past month! Bear was going to turn 90 in November. He lived an amazing life and we will continue to tell his stories and love him always.

  1. It's always hard to say to "goodbye" to a loved one. I will always remember the time he opened his home to the KC clan one summer. We got to enjoy his wonderful city of New Orleans! Now, everytime I find myself in that city, I will always think of Bear. Hugs to the Inzer family.
