He is the glue of the family, the one who always made sure that family came first, he is the one who taught me how to drive, the one who took me splashing in the mud puddles and made me "drippy eggs", the one who let me jump on the bed when I stayed the night and took me swimming in the pool when it was still way to cold to go swimming! The one who always snuck me a lick of icing before the cake was cut and made me cheese houses! The one who always had time for me when I came over, it didn't matter what he was doing when the Grandkids came over he stopped what he was doing and just spent time with us. No, a single sheet of paper is not enough! Not even close! A whole BOOK is not even enough! My Grandpa was such an amazing man that no-one can ever truly know the depth of this unless they knew him. Missing you so much Grandpa, give Tyler a kiss for me!
Reading this brought tears to my eyes! I am praying that you will always be able to treasure those wonderful memories of your Grandpa! Blessings to you and your family!
ReplyDeleteDear Candace-
ReplyDeleteNo. A sheet of paper can never go far enough to describe the love between him and his family, but you did a nice job of highlighting many of the ways love was expressed. God's blessings and comfort as you grieve along with all the family.
Love and prayers,
Laurie
