Since I can remember you was always there.
I can't explain how much I hate our only conversations now written in a prayer.
You always listened to me no matter what I said.
Making sure I Always was safe and was fed.
You supported me from the first moments I was alive.
Always being my biggest supporter and watching me thrive.
Thank you for being the best grandad I could have asked for.
The hole left in our hearts will be eternally sore.
Nan loved you so much and is lost without you.
But that's because she will always remember how your love was true.
I love you grandad always and forever.
I'm sorry I wasnt by your side which I will forget never.
The last conversation I will hold in my heart for the rest of my days.
Using all your knowledge to guide me through life, the maze.
I love you always grandad
Life will never make sense anymore without you
