Grandpop,
Everything's changing, life's still moving on and each day i still miss you. I wish we could have gone fishing a few more times but I'll never forget that one fishing trip, you, my dad, Chelsea and me. It's been almost 4 years and it feels like just yesterday you were still here. I love and miss you Grandpop.

Grandpop,
The holidays are coming and times are getting hard. It feels like just yesterday I was walking in your house to get a fudge bar and those mints that you always had. It feels like just yesterday the whole family was together for Christmas dinner. You're missed more than anything and the memories will live on forever. I love you Grandpop

Hello Dad,
You are missed every day. Tommy and I will be using your tickets for the Super Bowl party and be surrounded by many of your friends. We figure this will be the year that you will hit. I can hear you saying "who don't know that" Don't worry will put the winnings to good use. Probably bet on one of your horses. Well I have much to do today so keep on swimming ,bet that water is cold today. Stop by and give Mom a kiss and a hug. May God shine his perpetual light on you. See you at the park. Thank you!

What an honor it was to visit your dear wife and hear, from her heart, the testimony for Jesus Christ that you shared with your family before your homegoing.
This is what will remain in our hearts as a final memory of your life.
Your love for your wife and family will live forever in their hearts..................AND............
Because of your trusting Jesus Christ as your Saviour, you will live with Him in heaven for all eternity
It doesn't get any better than that.
