Then my Great Uncle had his 80th birthday and the entire family met at the Chattanooga Choo Choo and had a breakfast to celebrate his life. It was a very touching celebration: my dad wrote a poem for him, several people gave speeches and I was reminded that we all leave a legacy behind, and a legacy of family is so rare and special. We had a wonderful weekend because the night before the celebration, the kids and I drove to Sweetwater to pick up Opi and Omi and then went to Chatanooga to swim with the kids and stay at a hotel. The kids have fun spending a night with their great grandparents and playing in the pool with them. What a fun memory.
