My condolences to all the family, Although I am no longer considered a part of the family he touched my heart like no other. I loved him as though he were my own grandfather. I am sure he, and Grandma Anna are probably sitting in rocking chairs looking down on each and everyone of you. I Love you all and will be sending special prayers up. May God wrap his arms around you all, and give you peace and comfort during this difficult time.
sending my prayers for all.
