Papaw,
I’d give anything to hear you call me your little angel one more time, but i am so glad you are finally at peace and resting. I love you so much and you have changed me and the way i look at myself and life. You are a truly amazing man! I LOVE YOU!
Papaw,
In my mind there will always be loud booms and lights in the sky as you run around laughing mischievously with a huge grin putting on a fireworks show for us grandkids. Love you.
