A smile and lovely blue eyes that could light up a room... A stroke of a guitar string, skinning squirrels, and taking out our splinters. Showing us water exercises, to what herb will do the trick. You were a strong, smart man, who showed us love in your own way... just by being there. Will miss you, Grandpa... say hello to the others for me. Hope to see you again... love you xo
