Grandpa,

The family misses you very much. I remember all the family cook outs to talking about current events or world history. There was nothing you wouldn't do for your family. My father Ray and mother Sherry miss you very much as do your daughters. We know you are with Grandma Rose now and are in peace. Thank you for all that you did for us.

Your grandson,
Bryant Machowski, New Britain Connecticut
