I'm so saddened by the fact that I never got down there one more time to see Poppy. It brought a tear to my eye when I heard that he still he had me on his wall of grandchildren b/c of everything that happened. I wanted to thank him for loving me despite the circumstances. THe world lost a great man & I lost another "grandfather" . I love you & thank you so much for loving me. May you RIP. God Bless!
