My Grandpa is the greatest man I have ever known, everyone who had the pleasure of meeting him instantly liked him. Everytime I saw him he was all smiles and always had something to talk about, and always eager to help anyone when they needed it. I can't even begin to describe how much I miss him. I love you Grandpa! I think of you everyday. I'm thankful for every moment I had with you, especially your last ones.
