Grandpa,
Life is not the same anymore it seems. A lot has changed for me since you left us. I don't look at things the same as I did before. I miss you very much. I know that you were with Mom and I when we heard Luther Vandross and Phil Collins songs within the same hour. You played those two CD's when Dad, Mom, Tommy and I would go to Florida. We started to cry at the same time. Dad is not the exact same anymore, he seems to be missing something sometimes. I am a different person with a...

Grandpa,
I have been having a difficult time thinking about what to write here. I am at a loss for beautiful words, but I have so many beautiful memories. How can I appropriately honor you in merely a few brief sentences? You were my buddy, my partner-in-crime, and my best friend. We shared experiences, stories and so much laughter that will always be kept in the safest place of my heart. I will forever cherish my memories of you. Your spirit lives on; I can feel you in my heart. I...

Even though we didn't know each other well or for a long time, I'll always remember your smile. I never saw you without a bright smile and a firm handshake. More importantly, was how I knew you from your daughters. You are very much loved and that smile will forever be how I will remember you. I promise to help your girls any way I can for as long as I'm on this earth. Everyone knows I NEVER BREAK A PROMISE! If you happen to run into my mom tell her I said "Hi".

Dear Grandpa,
These past few weeks have been very difficult without you. I really miss you and will always love you. I will never forget all the conversations about the Stars, Politics or Birds (you seemed to know everything) we have had in Florida and here in Buffalo. I never got to introduce you to any boyfriends but I will let them know all about you through Grandma, the rest of the family and myself. I am so glad that we got closer from all the Florida trips my family and I took. The...

Grandpa,
I am always thinking about you. There are so many memories that will always be remembered. Do you remember the time I set my bed on fire? I do!! Thank you for teaching me so much. I know you are looking out over us making sure we are all ok, and that is very comforting. Please take care of my son up there with you. I love you very much.
