Grandpa Limburg and the boys Sept 2008. What a special man he was. I am so glad that my kids got to know their Great Grandpa before he passed away and spend time with him. He was such a loving man and always wanted to know what each kid was doing and always had a compliment for you. He was full of stories and memories and I loved listening to him talk and although we joked about his quirkiness at times, we loved him so much and will miss him.
Grandpa Limburg passed away on Mother's Day May 10th, 2009 and he lived a good, long life.
The funeral brought family, friends and even our Prophet together to visit and reminisce about his life. Pres. Monson came to the viewing on Friday night and shared his memories and talked to the family about "Joe" Limburg. What a neat experience (wish we could have met him---we got there a little late and missed seeing the prophet but heard it was wonderful!!)
