Grandpa, I miss you so very much and think about you everyday. Your memory will never leave me, regardless of how much time passes. You were a precious part of my life for 24 years and I am so grateful for that. Thank you for always showing me love and kindness. Love, Your Mosey

Grandpa,
I can't believe it has been ten years today since you've gone. So much has changed since then. Ten years ago today I was expecting Audrey and wasn't even far enough along yet to know that she was a girl. Now I have not only Audrey but Asher as well. I think of you often and wish you could have known them. I know you will in heaven though and that gives me a lot of peace.
There isn't a day goes by that I don't think of you and miss you. You are well remembered...

We lost Charlie today. He was such a good boy. I remember when you brought him home. You fed him popsicles and lots of other goodies, and took him places with you. After you were called home, Mom & Dad took him to their home and he was with them ever since. You took such good care of Charlie and loved him and we continued that all the way to the end. He was spoiled and cherished and very loved. He had soft puppy beds all around the house and was often on someone's lap. The...

The rain seems fitting... eight years today. My heart is still heavy with grief and missing you. So much has changed and happened in eight years that I wish you could have been here for. I've had two babies that aren't babies anymore, Scott and I have been married almost ten years, there have been lots of birthdays, anniversaries, graduations etc that I just wish you could have been here for. I know in another way you were but it's not the same as getting to laugh with you and making you a...

Grandpa, I just really miss you. Audrey is four today. Time goes so fast and yet it feels like forever at the same time. I wish you could see my kids. They are such neat little people. I miss you so much. There is still a hole in my heart that will never heal.

Grandpa,
You'd have been 76 today! It seems impossible you'd be that age, even though you never seemed old, even at 71, almost 72. You kept yourself young -biking or walking on the treadmill everyday, lifting weights, running up and down the street on stilts (HA!). I will always remember your best diet advice: "Go ahead, have a bowl of ice cream. Just have an orange afterward, because they cancel each other out." (P.S. Doesn't work... sorry!)
You were like a second father to me... ...
