Tracy:
Stay strong and know your papa loves you very much. He will be waiting to see you when you are in Heaven one day. He's already doing ok because he's not suffering anymore. Msg to papa: "Paw Pawdy" you can finally rest in peace now and have a beautiful, eternal, everlasting life in Heaven with your loved ones who went before you. Don't think for one second that this is it and you won't see us again, because you will. Maybe you need a break or want a break and you will have that for a little bit, but it won't be forever, we'll see you again. The kids and I love and miss you. Rejoice while you walk those streets of gold and enjoy being alive and well in spirit.

Thank you for your calls and encouragement along the way. I can still hear that laugh and see you cutting grass out in the hot son! Most importantly was the day that you told me that you had accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior. Today you are at peace and with the angels forever.

Even though I wasn't his biological grandson, for 24 years the "old man" treated me like I was. He loved me and adored my wife and children and we loved him. He will be missed dearly.
