Pop, I miss you every day. Thanks for all the things you did for me. I hope you knew how much I loved you and looked up to you. Thanks for being such a great father to me as a kid and a great friend to me later in life. I had such a great time golfing with you and watching sports with you. Those are memories I will always cherish. Your sense of humor still makes me smile remembering your jokes and stories. My kids were lucky to have you as a Grandpa and they miss you also. I learned so much from just being around you and watching you. Thanks for giving me such a great childhood. I was always proud to call you my Dad. I have peace knowing you are with Mom again and not suffering anymore. Life's not the same knowing I can't call you or come over and visit. I will forever think of you and Mom every day and smile. Love, Jeffy
