'A Grandpa is Someone You Never Outgrow Your Need For'

Yesterday my sweet grandfather passed away.  I wish I could be with my family at this time, I wish I could have given him one last kiss on the cheek.  He was a stubborn but sweet man.  He loved babies and animals, building and fixing things...he was a bright spot in my life and I am so grateful to have him in my life.  I will miss you Gramps.  I'll be seein you.
