Rip Grandpa. I will miss your face and funny sense of humor! I will miss you always trying to Nikon me. I will miss you calling me shnuckems when we walked in the door at your house and when you walked into ours. Miss You , I will get straight As for you! You will be missed dearly by me and the whole family!
