My Pa

As most of you know, my grandfather, Pa, has been really sick recently. Early this morning he passed away, returning to his Father in Heaven, and I'm sure was welcomed by his mother, father, brother, and sister. I am so grateful that I know that he is in a better place, without illness, and with his loved ones. I have had a difficult time with all of this, as he was more than just a grandparent to me, so much more. He has been such an amazing support in my life, and I miss him greatly.

I have so many attributes that he has passed on to me...my love of music, desire to be around friends and family, love for dancing, my constant sarcasm, my want to help others, my taste for nice things, my fascination with the world and traveling, and so much more.

What a great man, husband, father, grandfather, greatgrandfather, and friend. I love him so much, and wanted to share this with all of my dear friends.
