Ron's parent's, "Old Pappy" and Great Grandma as they are affectionately called by their great grandchildren attended the wedding of their youngest grandson on Saturday. Ron's cousin, Grace, passed this picture on to me and I thought it was a great picture of both of them. I know that I mentioned this so many times before, but just in case someone would be reading this and wonder why we would even think that "Old Pappy" would be an affectionate term, this name was chosen by Tayler when she was about 18 months old. She was in her Pappy's arms at Ron's parent's house. Ron and his father were talking to each other and Tayler looked from one to the other and her comment was, "You are Pappy and he is Old Pappy". Since that time Pappy Etter (Ron's dad) is now known as Old Pappy, but of course there is no way we would ever refer to Great Grandma as "Old Nana". I find it interesting that Dylann is now very interested in Old Pappy. Any time we are with her she will ask a number of times where Old Pappy is. I have to wonder if she sees the resemblance of Pappy and Old Pappy too.
