Grandpa, you were the one that gave me my love of baseball. You were the one I loved to watch read the paper. You loved your coffee black and about as hot as lava. You were tough but always so kind to me. You're smile made everyone smile in return. I will miss you every day. I will tell Charlotte about you and pass on your memory. I love you with all my heart and soul. Give grandma a big kiss for me.
