Tears of pain and hurt rolled down my face when i heard the news. All kinds of memories ran through my head. I remember spending the night over my grandparents house and grandpa use to have all kinds of games for his grandchildren. One game i remember so well is Po-Ke-No! He always had pennies and we all had fun being with them. I no longer cry tears of pain for you i'm glad you are not hurting any more you are in a better place. You are with GOD now and watching over everyone that LOVES you....
