For the years that I was lucky enough to know him I rarely saw him without a smile on his face. He was someone who I always enjoyed being around. He enjoyed spending time with his family...he was in fact the glue that held us all together. And once grand kids came along, well, he couldn't get enough of them. He was best at being Papa. It was rare for him not to stop by once a week, if not more. He was a definite regular in our lives.
Seven years. It seems almost impossible to have survived this long without him. And yet he is the reason that we can. He wouldn't have allowed us to wallow in our sorrow...and so we don't. We carry a piece of him always in our hearts, he's still a regular there.
In Loving Memory

A lovely post about someone who obviously touched your lives in many ways. Sending you good thoughts and prayers today.
I once read... "Live as thou you will die tomorrow..." I try and I fail but I always want to try again. Maybe that's life in a nut-shell? I love you.
His memory lives on and what a blessing it is. Thinking of you and Chris with lots of love and prayer.
