Papa Feaster

On April 23 Phil's grandfather on his Mom's side went to be home with the Lord. He was 87 years old. We took a trip up to Shadyside, Ohio, where he lived and where Phil's mom was raised. She was just a young toddler when her dad built the house that she and her brother Keith grew up in. He lived his life as a carpenter. He and Phil's grandma, who passed away in 2004, lived in that house until the day he died. Our Noah Raymond was also named after him, Raymond Feaster. We were only one day away from introducing Noah to him. The Lord had other plans.

Here are some pictures of Papa Feaster, the house, and the family times we had while we visited Shadyside.
