Grandpa Simons

Grandpa Enos Latimer Simons died on Nov. 2, 2008, this was Steven's grandfather. He died an expected death, but sad all the same to see a good man of God pass away. Enos was the father of five children, a husband, a patriarch, a bio chemist, a scout leader, and a great grandfather many times over. Steven and Benjamin both carry his middle name as their own. I only met him a handful of times, but as Steven jokingly put it, "Grandpa Simons loves you and likes me." Which I found very untrue. I will always remember him sending Ben blankets, a cowboy chaps, and a few other things so that my little boy could remember his great-grandfather. It should have been a sad day, but for me I saw it through a different light. I brought my camera that day and snapped a few pictures of the family and the legacy he left behind. I don't know how we could even be sad at his departing. If you don't believe him take a look at all of the people who grandpa Simons loved and who loved him.
