You will be greatly missed Grandpa. So many fond memories of my childhood surround you. Our trip to California, yearly trips to Scott Airforce Base, holidays, your funny jokes, El Camino rides with you and Oscar...the memories are endless. I Love you dearly. I know you're celebrating in Heaven with my Momma now. Rest in Peace Grandpa
