In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Hey Grandpa, its so hard to believe it will be two years tomorrow sense you left us. They have been hard but yet wonderful at the same time. I am now a junior in high school and have big plans when I get done with school. I finally got my own horse though you probably already knew that her name is Brooklyn and is a feisty little mare. My dad rode her in the parade last year and was wearing your hat and shirt boy did he look nice. I am getting my gun safety this year so maybe I can go hunting...

Grandpa,
i missed you this fall going up deer hunting. I missed having you to call and let you know i got a deer. I miss you very much and miss talking to you and hearing your stories. I have graduated college now and missed you at my graduation. I would just like to thank you for everything you have taught me and i will surely pass it on.

All the Kreft Family, I am so sorry to hear about Bob. Great times were had with all of your family. He will be missed by all. He is in heaven with my dad and watching all of us. All of you take care.
