We Will Miss You Grandpa Trottier

Robert Trottier our Grandpa and Great Grandpa passed away last week at the age of 80. We miss him already but are so grateful for all that he has taught us. He was always happy and like Matt an eternal optimist. He taught us that family is important and essential, that love should not be neglected, and that God knows and loves us. He truly lived the gospel day and night. He loved geneology and traced one line of heritage all the way back to somewhere around the year 280. His slogan for life was "life is wonderful." He said it all the time and even had stickers. We will never forget him. 

On the way home from the days festivities yesterday Matt and I were talking about the things we had learned just yesterday (at the funeral and after) about his grandfathers life. We were so amazed at what he had done and gone through and he gave us such hope and excitement for what lies in store for us. It is so amazing to have such great examples of people who have done it have made the most of life even with its challenges.  We hope we can live up to the task Grandpa. We love you!
