We've had a very sad past couple of days. This past weekend Mommy and Daddy brought me up to see Great Grandma and Great Grandpa. It was the first time that Great Grampy was unable to hold me because he was so ill. He did kiss me and hold my hand which made me feel very special. Well, that was the last day I saw him alive. Tuesday, March 7, 2006 my Great Grampy passed away. I know this is sad to post but he loved to come to this site and read my updates. I know he is reading this now. I will still try to write often. I will be taking some time though to comfort Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, Grandpa and Great Grandma. I feel that my presence will allow them to realize that he is in a better place now. Pain free. And I'm here to help them see the present and future. We will always remember Great Grampy for what a wonderful and caring man that he was. I will never forget the first time that he was actually able to hold me. Mommy brought me up when I was a little over 2 months old and he couldn't wait to get me out of the carrier and just gazed at me. (I think I included that picture in one of my earlier posts). This picture posted today is the last picture taken and the last time he ever got to hold me. WE MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU DEARLY GRANDPA!!!!!!!!
