Grandpa, you've been gone a little over a year now. I can't believe that. It's been a tough year without you. But our Cubbies are putting up a strong fight for post season possibilities, as I'm sure you know. Everytime i put on a Cubs game or wear a shirt or hat I think of you. I love that I can connect two things that I love. I miss you more now than ever. I love you.
