Grandfather,
I feel so blessed to have had you a part of my life. You are the greatest man I've ever known. You will be greatly missed by all! Always in our thoughts and memories. I look forward to the day that I can tell my children about you. I will forever remember your cute smile and the way you would kiss me on my cheek when you seen me.
Love you,
Brandi
