  • We are sad to say that a wonderful grampa to Eden has passed on. (Grandaughter Eden's words now) He will be very much missed by me & never forgotten. He was one of the best men on this earth & will always be my hero, & he always could find a way to cheer me up when I was down & feeling very sad. But now that he's not here its hard to not cry, but I know he will be watching over me from heaven, & I do not want him to be sad either so I'm gonna give him one of my biggest smiles, the way he always liked to see me smile. He always held my hand when I would fall down, I liked to go shopping with my grampa because he could always make jokes & I would laugh. Even though he is gone I can still hear him praying with me at night time & I still feel when he would hug & kiss me goodnight & say goodnite my girl I hope you have very good dreams & if you have a nightmare you know I'll be right there! You would always try to be the best person & grampa you could & you always succeeded. You were the most important person in me & my brothers' world, you truly brightened up our lives, whenever we were around you. I'm sorry that you were so sick & I could not be there for you as much as I would of been & I'm sorry that was not able to always hold your hand to make you feel better & not so scared like you always did for me. I'm sorry that I wasn't always the best to you, but I think you would understand, because that was just the kind of grampa you were... You can never be replaced, you'll always be in my heart & remember & think of you. I love you today & always my grampa xoxoxoxox Sweet dreams, I hope you're happy & having fun, I'll miss you so much!!! Eden This is Shannon, I'm so sorry for your loss Joan & Becky, Melanie & Victor, my thoughts are with you at this time, take care & try to be strong, I know it's hard, take one day at a time, he was a good husband & father, take comfort in that & that he loved you all very much & he's no longer in pain!! - Posted by: shannon / eden (friend / grandaughter) on: Jun 28, 2018
