Grandaddy,
I know you are not my Grandaddy but In the year you were at the nursing home me and you had some wonderful times. You brightened my day every weekend with that beautiful smile and them crazy faces you made. I worked this past weekend and it was not the same not seeing you pedal up and down the hallway and now who am I going to share a hersheys candy bar with now or a three musketeer? I love and miss you but know you are in a far better place away from all the sadness, meaness, and evil in this world. God Bless You and your family.
