Grandpa, I have so many fond memories of You growing up. You have always been there for us through the years... Guess I just thought you always would be. It's hard facing the facts, that I can't just run over and share a burger with You at our favorite resteraut Mc. Donalds. Then We would stroll back through the soldiers home, and You would proudly introduce me to every person we passed. I couldn't help but marvel about how clear your mind was.... thinking I can't even remember people's names as you can. I just hope that I am as lucky when it's my time, to go home in the way you did. I love You very much.... and You will be missed tremendously. We will meet again in Heaven. Love April

Grandpa Lou - We hope you knew how much you were loved and appreciated by all who knew you. You were an angel on earth for all of us to be reminded of how one should treat others. We know that you will always be with us, but we can't help wishing you hadn't gone home quite yet. We love you!
