We Love You Grandpa!

My Grandpa passed away this morning after a long battle with cancer. I have found out that it is not always fun to be all grown up. When you were a kid you did not have to worry about your Grandparents dying. As an adult you have to learn to pray for things that deep down you really don't want. I prayed that my Grandpa would have comfort and that his suffering would end soon. But my heart hurts today now that he is gone. This was one amazing man. He was an incredible piano player and wrote the song "When Joseph Went To Bethlehem" He could just play by ear. I was so pleased that he was able to play at both of my kids baptisms. My Grandpa has so much patients and love for us you could not help but feel it. My Grandma loves and adores him and it shows. They raised an incredible family that loves each other so much. They helped to make my Dad the man that he is today. My kids asked why I was sad this morning and I told them that he had passed and that he is the reason my Dad is the awesome Grandpa that he is to them. I Love him greatly and will miss him everyday.
I Love You Grandpa!!!
