As you may have noticed I have not posted in awhile, a weekend trip to California turned into a two week long emotional roller coaster ride, as we watched my Papa leave this world to join his daughter and other family in Heaven.
My beloved Grandfather passed away just a week ago today and I miss him immensely. I walked in my house late last night and saw my husbands house slippers, a gift from my grandparents and the same ones my Papa wore, and burst into tears realizing that my Papa will never walk through my door again.
I am thankful to have had such a wonderful man in my life and feel truly blessed to have been his granddaughter. He was loved by all who knew him and he holds a special place in the hearts of many. He loved children, Kylie named him Grandpapa when she started talking and today as I was posting this picture - Allyson walked by and said, "There's Grandpapa!" Again tears fell. A few days before he passed, he was having a good day and I took Brynnah in to see him and his face just lit up and he clapped his hands to play with her. I am deeply saddened that my children will not know him as I did but feel comforted that he looks down on them from above.
Papa - I miss you so much! I love you! I feel you all around me, I close my eyes and I can see you standing before me as if you are really there.

Oh, Amy, I'm so sorry. I wish I was there to give you a BIG hug. We'll keep you and your family in our prayers. God be with you 'til you meet again.
I have tears in my eyes again just thinking about him and what he meant to all of us. Everything reminds me of him. That is a great picture of him! Love you!
I am so sorry. I know how difficult this has been for you, but you have handled it so well. We love you! We are here if you need anything.
Amy, I know how hard it is to lose someone so close to you and am really sorry for your loss. Please let me know if you need anything.
Amy I am SO sorry for your loss. I wish I could hug you! It will take some time but it will get better, my Grandpa passed away 5 years ago now. He suffered from brain cancer, he died peacefully in his sleep by us. I will never forget him and tears to this day still fall but I believe they are out of happy times I spent with him. Trust me you will never forget. I dream about my Grandpa every now and again, it's almost like I can talk to him, it's weird but I enjoy those times:)
