Grampa, I can't believe you've left us. You meant so much to all of us. But I could never be able to put into words how much you meant to me. You weren't just grampa. You were the father I never had. You always showed me right from wrong. The stories and lessons you gave me will resonate in me forever. I can never repay you for everything you did for me Nudge. Getting on without you is most likely going to be one of if not the hardest thing I'll ever be able to do in my lifetime. I will never forget you, and am glad to have you watching over me every passing day. You're my angel now grampa, you always have been and you always will be. I wouldn't be wrong if I told you I know you were smiling up there when I read that eulogy in your memory, and still are. It was no greater honor to deliver something as truthful and accurate as that to people who love you so very much. I could go on for hours talking to you grampa, but words do no justice to express just how much this is going to be different for me. I promised you I will watch over Gramma, and listen and take care of mom. I will have no greater pride than in doing just that, buster. You did it your way, you're courageous, selfless, and truthful. I would never in all my coming years be able to find anyone I could call a hero as much as you. I love you so much Grampa. I'll see you in heaven❤️
