Grandpa was the most kind hearted man I know. He was stubborn but he was a very strong willed man. Grandpa and I have many memories together from our morning routine with the horses as a child, to the deep heart to heart conversations as an adult. I’ve learned many things from him in my lifetime, and he will always be with me. I cherish the time I was able to spend with him, getting to know him, hearing his stories in the navy, his stories about him and Grandma, his stories of how wild he was as a boy. So many things I never knew before, but am grateful to know now, for I will always look upon those stories when I’m missing him. His unique sense of humor was the best. Some of the jokes he cracked could leave you laughing forever. Grandpa, thank you for not only being my grandpa, but my friend as well. I will miss you dearly, but I’ll always have a piece of you with me. I love you grandpa ❤️
