Daddy I think of you often and miss you always. You had a wisdom found in so few and you we're loved by many. My sister joined you and mom and my heart is breaking, however there is peace in knowing you are together again. We have lost so many the family reunion is now on the other side in God's house. Dana and I will continue here on earth until God takes us home. Thank you for the strength and knowledge to get through this. Thank you for loving me and supporting me even at my worse. I couldn't have asked for a better father.

Our last day together before my Grandfather was sent home on Hospice, I wheeled him outside to the pond at the Care Center. He sat in his wheelchair. I sat next to him on a bench and Shawn threw rocks in the pond. We didn't say much. We didn't have to. Some of the best times in my life were just being next to him. To My Grandfather, Father, Best Friend and Hero I love you and will miss you every day until I'm with you again.

Although I have only known you for 4 short years, you have become a grandfather to me and a role model to emulate. You will never be forgotten. I love you.

I miss our weekends together. You made the best breakfast. We played cars and watched movies all day. I miss our trips to the cabin together. McDonald's for breakfast and spending all week with you. I love you Grandpa Fred. Your Best Pal
