Ever since I was a little girl Papa would always try to teach his grandkids Spanish. The first words we had to learn were ‘dog, cat, horse, house, and car.’ And every time we spoke to him or seen him we had to learn another 5 words. I definitely learned more than school would’ve taught me. Papa loved spending time with his grandkids. I remember when fishing and hiking were the main things we would always do. I miss the early mornings when he would get up to read his bible and then we would watch cowboys and Indians. Papa also didn’t like his grandkids to just say papa you had to say it with a whole accent and real loud, we all loved it and laughed.  And finally when it was time for me to go or hang up he would always say “I love you plus 1” and I would say “I love you plus 1 million” and he would still win because it was always 1 more added to the number I said. I’m going to miss you Papa. I love you so very much. I’m glad I was able to call you and continue to call you my Papa.

Uncle Juan was brothers with my grandpa Alvin. I remember one day when my grandpa and uncle Juan were helping out with the yard. I was younger than, and I told my grandpa you used to be stroooong, strong, strong grandpa and now you’re just strong! I made uncle Juan laugh hysterically about that. So why does this story remind me of uncle juan? Well every time I seen him he would bring up that exact story and I let him tell me the whole story every time cause I knew it made him laugh. You’ll be missed uncle! You get to see your brother and my grandpa now! Love you
