May we find comfort in each other, and the fact that grandpa passed peacefully surrounded by family. He had a great 87 years, and was spoiled by all of his family. Cheryl and Mom (Susie), I know exactly what you are going through. As both of you loved your father dearly. Your father is finally reunited with his wife. And the two of them will watch over you forever.
Love, Deb

To Sue and family,
Although I never met your Dad, with all that you have told me about him, he sounded like a great man. He loved all of you and will live in your hearts forever.
Love and prayers, Diana Foster
