Earl,
there are no words to truly express the way I feel without you here. I am waiting for my phone to ring and yet there is nothing but silence. I miss you terribly and wish I had had a chance to tell you I love you again before you left. The world is not the same without you, sure time ticks on and people go about their day but the world has gotten slightly darker at the loss of your light. I find day to day small things remind me of you, and I try to smile cause I know you wouldn't want me to be sad.Please know I am always thinking of you and I love you . Rest in peace sweet Grandfather. xoxo

My condolences for your loss. May you find comfort, from family, friends and the God of all comfort. "He is giving support to all who are falling and is raising up all who are bowed down" Psalm 145:14 He will sustain you until that day that he will swallow up death forever.
