Hans spent most of his life right here at home in the house he grew up in.  Of course he went places and did things.  He spent his first birthday in California while we were down there visiting family.  But other than that he never left the state of Alaska.  He never “got his own place”; never had to struggle to make ends meet, make a mortgage payment or get turned down for a job.

He didn’t “leave home” until the evening he went to his Heavenly home.

From his father’s house to his Father’s House.

From home to Home.
