I just wanted to show my gratitude for being a wonderful grandfather, father, husband, employee, and most important a wonderful person. A big part of who I am today is because of you. I always enjoyed our time together but God has decided to call you home. Thank you for being in my life and know that you are loved and missed by a lot of people, including myself. Take care until I see you again.
