Grandad, I'm missing you extra badly today. I think of you everyday & there are always so many things that remind me of you. Everyone says it gets better with time, but I miss you more everyday. You were such a fine example to me of how a person should be. There's no doubt in my heart you're up in Heaven playing your guitar and singing, like you always loved to do. I'm sorry I didn't come to your house w/the family on that Saturday night...sure wish I could turn back time. Wish you could see me now, I think you'd be proud. Audrey Grace misses you so much also. She talks about you all the time....how much she misses you and needs you. I hope you can hear us when we go visit you at Bethlehem. I believe you can and I believe you are our guardian angel. Wish so badly that I could have one of your big hugs one more time or you could pat my cheek. I know I'll see you again one day in Heaven...this is what I keep telling Audrey too. Until then, I love you & miss you so very much.

Grandad, you were like a parent to me and I appreciate your patience, guidance, generousity, and unconditional love. I know I'll see you again someday in Heaven, but until then...Audrey Grace and I miss you like crazy and love you even more!

I love you Grandad. You were one of my best friends, and one of the best men I've ever known. I'm glad that I can see you again in a better place. I know you're singing a new song in that glory land you told me about all of your life!
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
