I could never have imagined sitting here at my computer pecking out a farewell to PK. We lived next door to Paul and Mary Anne for what seemed like forever, at the time. Paul somehow reminded you that you were his next door neighbor, nearly every day. Paul and I did a lot together. Golf. Well, I recall the day he called me to tell me We were going to start playing golf and not to worry because he had it all lined up for us to get Everything we needed. And we did. Started at the driving range and went from there. We played a lot. PK got better, Me not so much. Pk was real serious on the golf course, but not going to go into that. He also had a sense of humor, but everyone already knows about that. We really did have a lot of fun. Never thought I would be telling this story like this. Paul and Mary will always be a big part of my life and two of my best friends. I will never forget you guys. Just think of me when you hit that slice my friend. I can hear you now. "I must have done that for Ron"

Im not sure when I started calling my Grandpa, PK.. but as an overly observant child, Id guess from his mailing address label. He and MaryAnn wrote often and never missed a holiday or birthday, visited frequently and eventually purchased a 2nd home to be closer to the grandchildren (& grandchildren). I believe he enjoyed that I noticed that small detail in his name styling and yet, never overtly mentioned it. He always encouraged me, to read, eat well-rounded, to educate myself, & even when I think he wouldnt support a decision I made, hed surprise. Coupled with a - Is that right?- and his tell tale chuckle, always a discerning man, hed see hard and the humor in most things. PK loved golf, loved to be with his family, took seriously time spent educating those around him on the lessons he had hard learned (& earned). Some of the last things he said to me were Live for yourself, Keep your boy in sports, theres extreme value in that, look after your family, theyll need you and with a sigh and a reply, I said well that wouldnt be quite living for myself and he said .. double duty.. as he did, as will I. I had the honor of witnessing a friend come to visit, say his goodbye. My takeaway, my Grandfather PK, had the courage to face his truth and always had our MaryAnn in his fore thought, planning on his next move. He will not be forgotten remembered with loving thoughts & missed ❤

Tom and I were watching a movie the other night and I kept saying one of the actors reminded me so much of him with the things he said. Then the other day I used his famous line of thats a zero and laughed to myself when I said it. I very thankful that we were all able to go up and see him for Thanksgiving. He looked good and was in good spirts or at least he led us to think that. Him and Maryann were a big part of my life and I sure will miss them, but I am glad they are back together as I know how much he missed her. It was hard hearing about the last few months of his health. He was a strong proud man and Im sure it drove him crazy not being able to do the things he wanted to do. Pops we love you and will miss you, but I know for the rest of my life there will be days when something happens or I say something that and reminds me of you and for that I am grateful because you will never be forgotten ❤
