I remember many good times with you. A man in his mid 50's teaching me how to do back flips into a pool, catching bait fish with bread, our trip to Miami when I was 4 when we went to the zoo, rides to school, Christmas, Thanksgiving, watching sports, savings bonds! There are so many memories. The greatest part of the memories is that you are in them. You will be missed greatly. I may check in you from time to time to let you know how your great grandson is doing and give you updates on the Bucs and Rays. Look over us and make sure we are safe. I love you....Justin
