I will never forget all the
I will never forget all the times riding the mower around the yard with pap-pap, sitting on his lap after ballet and his dentures falling out, and me screaming not knowing what happened. All of his jokes, the barking spiders, "buuuurp, very good mam mam". Going up to the mountains for the foliage festival and always falling asleep in the backseat on the drive up. He was the most caring, funny, and amazing person i knew and I will always look up to him. He showed everyone the true meaning of family, and for that I want to thank him. I will miss him more and more with each passing day, but now Haidyn has the best guardian angel she could ever have and I know he is smiling down on all of us. I love you so much pap pap, and I will see you again someday. :)
for you Kellie
PaP-Pap knew how you felt about him. He seen and felt the love all you kids showed. He was always so proud and left everyone know that he had the best grandkids. He surely will be missed but he is completely healed and that makes us go on. Our memories of him is another thing to keep us going Thank you Kellie, that was great. Love you Honey, See you tomorrow.
