Grandpa,

You are greatly missed! I am hoping you and grandma will watch out for our entire family and keep us all safe! I am sorry you never had the chance to meet your newest great-grandson, Trevor, before you left us, but he will get to know you through memories..You may be gone...but will live on forever!

Dad

We will miss you. I already do not know what to do with my time that I had previously spent with you. It was hard though seeing you suffer so much. I hope and pray you are in a better place now with Mom and Frank and all the friends and relatives that have passed from this life into the next.

Love your daughter Karen and family
