Grandfather,
Wow, five years. Five years in reality does not seem like a lot of time but it's been a very crucial time in my life. I've grown into the women you always knew I could. You left me so much love and wisdom. You also left me my best friend. Your princess Breanna Michelle. Together we've tackled life without you and we've done it with the kindness you left in our hearts. Thank you for being my favorite person. For loving the little girl across the street even when I wasn't across the street anymore. In 5 more years I hope to still
be a women who makes you proud. You are forever in my heart, forever in my spirit, and forever in my life through Breanna. I love you and will always cherish every lesson I learned. Thanks for adopting me into the family and making me your forever granddaughter.
I love you,
Love,
Lexi (Granddaughter)

today marks five years and two days.
when you first passed I had no idea how I would make it without you. you were my bestfriend, there was nothing we couldn't talk about. though out the years so much has changed. although, one thing hasn't & that's the friendship you made me have with alexis jade. I now see why you pushed us so hard to be friends. you knew that you had to make sure we always had someone and now we do.
we love sitting and just telling stories while sharing our memories.
we've both became such better people because of you.
you will forever be in our hearts and we are so thankful for you.
we miss you more and more every year.
xoxo, baby doll
