What's In A Name?

We thought very carefully about how we wanted to name our children. We knew we wanted them to have strong family names, and decided that we'd name them after grandparents-both ours and theirs.

Jack Richard will be our first born.  He is named after Lisa's Papa, Jack (who's name was actually John, but he was known by all as Jack), and by Brian's Grampie, Richard (who goes by Dick).  Both were/are kind, strong men with large families and even larger hearts.

Jack, Lisa's beloved Papa, who left us too soon in 1999.

Richard, Brian's kind & sweet Grampie.
Robert Gregory (or Bobby as he will be called) will be our second born son.  He is named after our fathers.  Both of these men are also kind, strong men in addition to being extremely talented guitar players. 
Robert (Bob) and Greg, aka Papa and Grampie
