My great grandfather was a remarkable individual. I have pleasant memories from my childhood involving him making me laugh. He was very funny, quick-witted, and kind. I hope that he is at peace. He will be missed greatly and I will keep all the fond memories close to my heart.

I feel so blessed to have had him in my life and to call him "Grandpa". He will always be in my heart.

Love to you all, Judy
