One of my Hero's!

When I was growing up in Preston, my Dad and his 2 brothers and my grandpa had a business. The "Carter Brothers". How cool would that be to work with your family. I always thought it would be neat to work with my sisters. Anyway they decided to retire and sold the business in 2000 after about 40 years working together. Our family lost a brother sunday night. Uncle Glen, Little Glen, Benny those are some of the names he went by.

I always had a big soft spot for my Uncle Glen, he was always so fun to be with. Yes that is me with him (big hair do and all)plus my dad and sister Vickie.
Uncle Glen had alot of health problems but he never let anything get in his way if he wanted to do something. He lived past every thing the doctors ever told him and we have been so blessed to have him in our lives. He gave his all in everything he did, and showed us how to love and serve.

This is one of my favorite pictures, it was the first Christmas we had Michaela. He was so happy for us. He always new how to make each person feel so special. When we were little, he would come and get us on our birthday take us up to the department store and let us pick something out and then a treat. My stories could go on and on. He told me on his 80th birthday that his new goal was 82 then he would have made it as old as Grandpa. He made it, plus one more year. He has forever touch my life! Thanks for so many wonderful memories Uncle Glen, I will love you forever. Have fun fishing up there with Grandpa!!
