My(Emily) Grandpa Duzett passed away on January 26th. He had gone in for a surgery that should have been uneventful and somewhat simple. Well days after having surgery he suffered from blood clots and extra bleeding. We thought for a little while that he might pull through but in the end it was his time to go. It has been a hard and sweet time for our family. We are so grateful for the gospel and we know that we will be with him again someday. I just wanted to list somethings that I will never forget about my Grandpa.
-I will never forget that he had a simple testimony of the gospel.
-I will never forget that he wasn't perfect and when he made a mistake he would make sure he would fix it.
-I will never forget how excited he was for Jack to come to our family. He worried about Brent and I and he knew what it felt like to wait so long for a baby.
-I will never forget the time he spent in our home teaching Brent how to do many little things like replacing base board and putting up crown molding.
- I will never forget what a meticulous and hard worker he was.
-I will never forget being with him twice when he got pulled over and him mentioning that he had a temple recommend to the police officer.
-I will never forget that he grilled a great hamburger and many fun memories from family BBQ's
-I will never forget going with him and some cousins down to the church to make sure it was all locked up. Me and my cousins would follow him around the building locking and turning out lights. Our favorite thing was to turn on a light that he had turned off so when we got outside he would look up and say, "hey I thought I turned that light off". We would all have a good giggle. He eventually learned to not let us back in the building. :)
-I will never forget his sense of humor. He loved joking around and even liked laughing at himself.
-I will never forget that he was able to stand in the circle as Brent blessed our little Jack. Little did we know that it would be his last sacrament meeting.
