One of the reasons for our visit to AZ was to see my grandpa, Jay Ballard Coombs. (He's the one Jay Alvin is named after.) Grandpa had Alzheimer's for about 6 years and he passed away earlier today. We're grateful we were able to say good bye and that he was able to meet Jay Alvin. Grandpa always loved babies and that's something that the Alzheimer's never took away from him. When we took Jay Alvin over he said, "Who's this? Let me hold him." I'm grateful that grandpa is finally able to be rid of the mortal body that gave him so much trouble these past few years, but I'm sure going to miss him. We love you grandpa!
