Pappy,
We all miss you. I love you so much.I might not have been there alot in the past couple of years but you will always be my grandpa. You were a great man and father and husband.You will shine down on all of us till we meet again. I know you are watching us with mom and grandma.
Goodbye my friend.
I shall see you again
In heaven where the stars stay.
I will be there one day.
The world isn't the same,
Since the day the angels came.
You maybe on a star,
But I love you wherever you are.
My stays with you are long past.
They're right. Fun never lasts.
We worked hard in the workshop.
Side-by-side, we never stopped.
Know that in my heart you're alive
Until the day, in heaven, I arrive.
You're in the hearts of all you touch.
We still love you very much.
Good bye for now but not forever pappy.

Ken Rohrbaugh will be missed by everyone who knew him. He was Dad, Pap, brother and friend to most of us. But to his children he was both mother and father. He accomplished something few men would tackle; when he found himself a young widower with several children still at home, he stepped up to both parenting roles without a second thought. He cooked, cleaned, and provided for them, while continuing to run his own business. He was offered choices, but did not take any of those offers. And he raised his children to go on to have families of their own. Ken had 8 children, 26 grandchildren, and 36 great grandchildren. He always had a story to tell, and a way to make you laugh. He was a constant in our lives, and taught us about commitment and family. We will all miss The Man in the Window.

Dad the memories of your laughter, and your warm, loving smile , your eyes so full of happiness , and your heart so kind and giving.

Pap,
I will never forget our fun memories and your stories. I loved our moments of watching movies (Old School), TV (Wrestling or the news/lottery), washing your ticklish feet, eating italian Subway Subs with you, writing you notes, giving you a hard time, and just spending time with you. You have been a wonderful grandfather and our memories I will cherish always and forever. I miss you so much and hate that I can't call you...but I know you are an angel now and you're watching over all of us. I love you so much Pap! I know one day we will meet again...until then you will always be remembered as the amazing man you were.
Love you Pap! <3 xoxo

"If Tomorrow Never Comes"
If I knew it would be the last time
that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute or two
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.
If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything right.
There will always be another day
to say our "I love you's",
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget,
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight..
So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,
That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today,
whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear,
Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me,"
"thank you" or "it's okay".
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today
