A Great Man

After what had proven to be a very exhausting, but exciting, weekend of watching Braedon play baseball, we got some very tragic news.  Steve's grand-dad (otherwise known as CT) had passed away Sunday morning.

For those of you who never knew this man, you missed out.  He was a father to 5, father-in law to many, and grand-dad/great-grand-dad to the luckiest bunch of kids ever!  He had a stroke around 9 AM on Sunday and passed on shortly after it.  

You know, I have experienced so many deaths in my life that sometimes you feel like you are numb, like you can't hurt anymore.  But, that is so not true.  This week will be very difficult to say goodbye to this man.  He took me into the Knight family with a heart full of love and no questions asked.  

We travel back East today for the viewing and the funeral which will all happen on Tuesday/Wednesday.  Please say a special prayer for the entire Knight family, as this will be a terribly hard time for everyone.
