Dear Granddad ,
I miss u very much . I go to bed and think about all the good times that we had and all the talks that we had . It's almost a year that u passed away . I know that u are watching over me and I just wanna say thank u for everything that u have done for me . I still haven't let u go because it is hard for me to do that . U were like another father to me . I love u and save me a spot so when I get there I can see u . Give my aunt a kiss for me . I love u ..
