Grandpa,
I write you be means of this guest book because I will not be able to be there tomorrow. I want you to know how much I love you and miss you. When I went to see you when I was home, you told me you were proud of me and that you always knew I'd be a good mom. That meant the world to me. I would like to continue to make you proud so if I could ask you for one thing it would be to watch over me and our family... you will be missed now but I know that someday we'll be together again in heaven.
All the way in WA,
Your Granddaughter,
Tania Guaman-Covert
