Update on Grandpa 9:39PM Sunday: We have been at the hospital most of the day today and he is still holding on, though there have been several times today when I thought he'd left us. He had a good day yesterday and even ran a lady out of his room when she dared try to shave him during the Alabama game...LOL! We were all really surprised to get the call this morning around 9 that he'd taken a turn for the very worst. He hasn't been alert at all today other than muttering a few times and creasing his brow now and then when talked to.
Most of the time his family was in decent spirits, even managing to laugh at stories....like the ones you all know and love....about Grandpa and the rest of the family. I hope he could hear the laughter and know that we would all be okay,.....but that he will be missed. I hope he heard those moments too.
Also, please remember the Jolley family. Their sweet Mother, grandmother, & great grandmother is not doing well at all. This precious woman is over 100 years old, and it hasn't been but just a few months ago that I saw her kneel in prayer with a lonely soul at the altar! She is truly a pillar in our community and she is the very definition of a Godly servant. My prayers go out to her and that family tonight, that she wouldn't suffer and would feel the very love surrounding her that she has offered to everyone she meets in her time on this earth....always,...always...with a smile!

Praying for Grandpa and the family. Blessings to you all.
Praying for you all!
Your family is in my prayers... I spoke with my cousin Mandy (Mrs. Jolley is her great grandmother) she is hanging in there and knew everyone last night when she left. Hospice is there keeping her comfortable. I have the best memories of going to grandma jolley's every easter! She is an amazing woman.
