Dear Grandpa

Grandpa, I miss the way you smiled when I walked into the house, I miss the hugs before leaving, I miss the questions about Ferb's food, and about college. I'm so lucky to have been able to see you, before you left us so soon. Thank you for being there for me always. For wishing me off to have a good time at prom, for the kiss on the cheek and tight squeeze, that I will remember always. I loved you as if you were my own, blood or not, You were family to me. Thank you for the lifetime of memories, and for being the grandpa I needed.
