My grampa you are an amazing man! A man who loved his family to the fullest and then some. A man who taught us all values. Who showed us girls great men really do exist.  I am proud to be your granddaughter. I'm so happy you are reunited with Gram! God is good and you deserve to be happy. I love you❤
Rest in heavenly peace❤

Grandpa, 
I remember so many fun times camping. I thank you for all the things you did for my mom , my sisters, and I. Thank you for being the rock of our family. You and grandma were the roots of our family. Take care of grandma, my mom and aunts.  Rest In Peace.
Love, Jen.

Hi grandpa -it’s jacq. 
I’m at a loss for words, although the memories are flooding. You (and grandma) are at the heart of my childhood, and I’m so grateful. I’m going to miss you always, and I’ll love you forever. Thank you for your love, your lessons, and all of your silly antics. Rest well, rest with your beautiful bride, grandpa. 

-Jacq, Thomas, Carter, Matthew 

Grandpa, I wish I had lived closer so that I could have spent time with you, and helped you during these last 2 years.  I know how hard its been for you. I am happy that you’re at rest. Im sad that there won’t be anymore phone calls or cards between us. Thank you for always being there for me! You were and continue to be a positive role model for me. I’ll never stop looking up to you. Carry my love with you to gram, my mom, Robin and Candy.  May you rest in eternal peace.
Love, Tammy.

P.S. you’re above average now!

I’m still in shock that you’re gone. It just always felt like you’d be alive forever and that we’d never have to worry that this day would come. I’m so sorry I did not make it over to your house in time before you passed to remind you about James and I’s baby shower. I was planning on coming the day you left us but I was too late.  I’m gonna miss our talks about San Fran and your days stationed there in the military and how you’d drive all your buddies around the bay in your 1950 Studebaker because you were the only one that had a car, or all the talks about how you and grandma met. I miss you so much but I know you’re much happier up there with Grammy. Tell her hi for me and I love you both. 

Love always, Holly
