Bittersweet

On May 10, 2011 my mom's parents (Bob and Ola Mae Hodges) celebrate their 65th wedding anniversary.  And two weeks later on May 24th, Grandma Hodges will have her 88th birthday!  It's bittersweet because Grandma lives at a nursing home and has Alzheimer's Disease.  This is one of the last pictures I have of my Grandad with his bride, which was taken about two years ago.

So precious. I'll never forget them sitting in church holding hands.

Love your grandparents! I've known them my whole life. Ola Mae was my bible school teacher when we attended Dove Road CofC. Always loved Bob wearing his pastel suits on Easter Sunday.

In my opinion, your grandparents are two of the finest people that I will ever meet in this world.

Bob and Ola Mae are such a sweet couple and a great example for all of us to follow. I really miss her at church. She is such a wonderful lady inside and out. No one can quote scripture like Bob. I love them both!!
