Grandpop, I miss you a lot. I miss your humor most. Was going through some things and found a coupon I saved for that Karo syrup. Was planning to buy some and make you Grandmom's bunt cake for Christmas. Now, I know you're in heaven. If you're not, then there's no hope for anyone else. You are there and you have the body of your youth - you can hear and see again. You can run and kiss my Grandmother again. I'm sure you're even playing cards - I'm sure God allows it for fun in heaven. I know you're happy and for that I am happy too. I'm only a little sad for myself that I won't be able to speak with you anymore or see you for Christmas. I must rest in the hope that I get to see you again one day.
