Hey Grandad,

I already miss you so much. I pass your obituary everyday in my office and the tears cant help but flow. The pain is still real I cannot imagine how GOD could bless me with such a wonderful example of manhood.  31 years you labored for Christ and only what you do in him will last so I just thank GOD if he blesses me to do the same. I'll love you forever. So sorry you never got to meet my son, he loves his big papa and will always know where his middle name came from and why it was so important to me to pass on to him the one thing you left to me. Your name. If I do it right, which I promise we both will, well both join you one day and OOOO what a day that will be! Until we meet again...........

Love

Your Grandson
