My Morfar

My Morfar passed this week so we went down to his house to clean it out.

Eli had fun on the Dolly moving furniture down to the trucks.

He also had fun with (his) morfar moving furniture. Waiting for the elevator.

While cleaning out stuff, I found a picture of bestemor. My morfar’s mother. It’s been many years, but I remember her.

That weekend was the funeral. Ferelyn and her family drove in. Always fun to see them! Mormor with her grandchildren. My parents love it when the family comes together.

Seth and his wooden tie. Reminds me I need to make one for Eli.

Can’t have a Norwegian party with out marzipan cake! It was delicious.

During the funeral, many stories were told of Morfar. One story was he always sung a jingle when someone came over to the house. I remember as a kid morfar singing this to us as we walked through the door and. So at the end of the viewing we all sang the jingle. I didn’t get it on camera so we had to do our own.

Ha det morfar. Good bye morfar.
