Papa, I'm not good at these kinds of things or expressing my feelings, but I will do my best for you. You came in and helped raise me when my Dad didn't and that meant a lot to me. I know I wasn't always the best when it came to talking about my feelings with you either, but I know you know I loved you with all of my heart. Our Monday nights out and the talks we would have about everything, will always be great memories that I have with you. I'll never forget everything you did for me, stepping in in place of my Dad. But Ill always be sorry that I didn't show it more when I became a teenager. The house seems empty without you here, and I miss you very much, Grandpa and m love you even more.

The kids, Grandma and I are missing you like crazy, Grandpa. We love you more than you'll ever know.

I don't have words.... I just miss you, Grandpa. Life is not the same without you here, but I know you're having a great time up there with Jesus, family and friends. It doesn't make it any easier for us left here without you, but there's some comfort knowing you're with the Lord on streets made of gold! Just... we miss & love you so much
