I miss you so much, Pappa. I wish I had a chance to say goodbye, but I'm happy you passed peacefully, with Nanna along your side. It makes me smile to know your final memories will be laughing together with Nanna. You were such a great Pappa and role model. I will always remember and love you. Watch over us
