Dad-I don't feel like it was really your time to leave us. Too sudden..too soon. I can't thank you enough for all you did for me, and even more for all you did for my son. You were more than a grampa to him. There is so much I wish I could say to you, and no more time to say it. I love you, miss you & can't believe you're gone so fast...
