Dear Vavu:
There are no words to express the way my heart is feeling.
You were and always will be a big piece of my heart.
You were always there to give advice
although I may not have always listened. You never looked down on me when I made bad choices, and God
knows I have made quite a few. You
were more than a grandfather you were more like a second Dad. I have
very fond memories of childhood summers spent with you and Vavo and those no one can ever take away or replace. You gave me so much and I will never forget all you did for me, whether it was just to listen or a hug when I needed it the most.
I could never have asked for a more wonderful grandfather than the one I was blessed with.
I will miss your little grin on your face especially when you were up to no good.
I love you, today and always.
love your granddaughter,
Dawn
