Remember Lost Loved Ones | Memorial Gifts - PaintYourLife

From the time my husband was very young, he always had his PawPaw living with him and his parents. He has told me it was like growing up with 3 parents. He was extremely close with him and has story after story of him being there raising him, teaching him countless life lessons, and of course how to hunt/fish/skin a deer, etc. In early 2017 his PawPaw lost his long time battle with cancer. I have never seen my husband more broken than that night. Fast forward to when our daughter was born in October of 2018, as happy as he was to have her, he tearfully told me he just wished his PawPaw could have met her. Then along came our 3rd and final baby and he said the same thing. With his PawPaw passing before they could ever meet our babies, we obviously have no pictures of them together. So, I hatched out the plan to have this oil painting done of PawPaw with his 3 great-grandbabies. This is the reaction of my mother-in-law seeing her daddy with all their grandbabies for the first time, and my husband seeing his PawPaw holding all of his babies. ????
