Dear Grandpa,

My Dear, sweet, loving grandfather passed away on June 6, 2011. He was 96 years old and lived quite a life. He faced so many difficulties and challenges in his life yet was happily married to my grandmother for 68 years until her death on February 1, 2010. They raised 5 children, my mother, the youngest took excellent care of them and was with them everyday of the last few years of their lives that they required more care. I know that they appreciated her so much more than she'll ever know. They have many grandchildren, many many great grandchildren and even some great great grandchildren. He is greatly missed and loved.

So sorry for your loss. I had only one grandfather that I knew, Grandad, and I loved him dearly. I lost him as a young child, but he will forever be in my heart. He was the best! God bless both of our grandfathers.
