grandpa grandpa grandma isnt feeling the best
her eyes are red and she cant rest
grandpa grandpa please help her too
i think she needs you more then i do
you were my grandfather and my family when my own grandparents don't give a shit about me. you were always happy to listen to me and to tell me funny stories about your life. you were more then my employer you were my friend and i was adopted into your own family as your granddaughter, and now your wife is red eyed and your sons and daughters and grandchildren are missing you because they want you back but we're all thankful we got to know you so well and that we have such good stories but please frank i just want to tell you one more time that i appreciate you and i love you and i cant thank you enough for helping me for these past four years
maddie is missing you so much, she's confused and she's wondering where her owner is but like a good dog she's still waiting for you to brush her but that wont happen anymore and that makes me cry more then before
thank you for being the person i admire most, and for putting family before yourself
