Dear Papou,
I miss you so much. You were THE best man that ever lived, and I'm so happy I was so close with you. I couldn't ask for a better man to be my Papou and I have so many memories to remember you with. I miss hearing you tell me Im "strong like bull." I just want to say I miss you and love you, and think about you every single day. Love you Papou.
