My dear Grandpa. So many wonderful memories of you. You keep yourself busy with a new and improved project in the backyard that you enjoyed sharing. You loved your sweets, but controlled your sugar levels for the most part. Except for that one day when your sugars were a little high and you didn't understand why until you told us that all you had were the popcorn balls that I had made....3 of them lol. I loved all our conversations, but the one that I have held onto since I was a little girl, "Every morning jump out of bed and say good morning sunshine! Make your bed and you will be happy all day." Never told you grandpa, but it would work! I love you grandpa and I will miss you dearly.
