Granddad Robertson

Yesterday we said "So long" to a good man.  He was a decorated Captain in the Navy, a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and a great man.  Captain Robert Russell Robertson passed on from this life last night.  He will be sorely missed by his wife, children, grandchildren, and all that knew him.  He was surrounded by those closest to him as he peacefully passed on.  I am blessed to be one of those.
Experiences like this really make me think about the fragility of mortality.  It's incredible to realize how at one moment everything is great, and then the next moment is the last.  We don't know when or why.  And so the moral of the story?  This is what we have!  Whether you believe in a life after death or not, one thing is certain.  This is the only "life" that we have.  Live it.  Enjoy it.  Be happy.  Love.  Help.  Experience.
