Grandpa

When the phone rang at seven this morning, I already knew you were gone. Mixed with feelings of sadness and relief, I sat to remember. The way you smiled when I would kiss your forehead, your playful, child-like spirit andthe endless tales of long lost times.

Though the tears flow freely I can’t help but feel joy. Joy for your life, your gifts to this earth and the countless fond memories I will keep in my heart.

Dance now dear Grandfather, through the golden streets of Heaven. Join with your friends in a glorious chorus. Rest on the shores of the flowing crystal sea but please remember to save a spot for me.

You are loved!

Love and Hugs,

Your only Granddaughter
