Grandpa was such a sweet man. He passed away when I was eight. I remember my parents sat us down to tell us and it was one of the only times I saw my dad cry. At the funeral I remember standing next to Jayne and telling her that I wasn't sad. I was glad he didn't have any more headaches. I think they are buried in one of the most beautiful spots on earth.
Things I remember about Grandpa: They came to our house for my birthday and gave me a Barbie doll with a yellow dress. I remember waking up early at their house and him sitting at the kitchen table drinking Pero and eating an egg. He took me to JB's at the mall on a special date and let me order anything I wanted. He would always say "You Betcha!" He gave great hugs. He loved my mom so much! They also came to our house for Christmas a couple times and vice versa. He eminated a lot of love.
Not bad memories for a few short childhood years. I love him with all my heart!
