You were such a great person I am lucky to have had you as my grampa. You always lit up the room with your personality and energy. I wish I could've had more time with you so kiley and Izayah could've known you like I do. Back in March was the last time I saw you I didn't think it would be the last but I told you that I loved you and that next time we would play a game of basketball. I will be holding you to That, until we meet again. You are truly loved and will be missed but never forgotten xoxo.

Be comforted knowing that God is with you during this difficult time and that there are friends that also share your sorrow with you. I always find encouragement in reading the book of Psalms and 121 chapter.
