been thinking about you hard grandpa i remember we used to hang out all the time outside and I used to get you tea and everything I miss those times and I remember we set up a little shop together in the backyard by the swing you built for me and we had apples on that table and you let me have friends come over that were around like that one girl that lived right on the other side of your garage and I remember you hid a couple apples and I thought someone stole them I remember so much Im so glad we spent that time together because having a great great grandpa is special to have

You were taken from our lives very sudden , and we weren’t prepared for you to go. We are all deeply grieved and even though you are gone from this world you will never be forgotten and until we meet again Dad I know you are at rest with our heavenly Father.I will forever be proud and grateful for the time I had with you and to be called your son. You taught me a lot and it’s helped me to succeed. You will always and forever be in my heart Dad.
