Gone too soon, and are already terribly missed. Our hearts are broken, our spirits dampened. I'll always remember the wonderful summers, the calls, and letters, with you and Gramma during my childhood. The wonderful times I had with you two, and how loving you are will stay with me for a lifetime. Gone but not forgotten.
I love you Grampa.........
