This year has gone by way too fast...I miss you Grandpa and still can not believe you are not here with us...Love you always and forever!

I felt bad & started watering it....the other day as I walked out to the garage, I smelt the strongest scent of flowers, I turned and to my surpise, 2 beautiful roses had bloomed.

My Grandpa was the BEST! I have oh so many wonderful memories of my Grandpa. My favorite memories were the one's when I was a little girl and when my Grand Parents lived on Daisy St.( to this day, I still go by there every now & then.) My Grandma took care of me as a little girl and I remember me & Michael waiting for Grandpa to come home from work. He always came home so happy & with a smile.
