my Grandpa

Grandpa, Where do I begin? All the memories I have of you make me wanna laugh and cry at the same time. I remember spending time at a beach with you and Grandma while dad was away and you guys watched me. I remember getting the salt shaker and going to pick the best tomatoes out of the garden and sitting there eating them with you. Even the little things you did for me like how you made my toast in the morning. Toast it then butter then toast it again then add peanut butter. Because of you that is how I will always eat my toast. No matter what. Also as a kid I would pretend you were a customer and I would make you eat the pretend food off your coasters. You made jokes about it all the time how I was making you fat for Thanksgiving or something. You even put up with my attitude and bad ways when I stayed with you when I was 16 and finishing my freshman year of high school. You didn't have.to but you did anyway out of love. So many other memories I have that I could write a book with them all. But those are the ones that made the biggest impact on my life. Even you calling meTurkey neck and Tiffany two shoes. I used to hate those names now I miss hearing them. Just wish I could hear you call me those funny names one last time . All I know grandpa is that I'm proud to call myself your granddaughter and I'm so happy you were happy to hear your second great grandson has your name Eugene. I will miss you so much Grandpa and its hard for me to accept it. Can't believe you are gone. But you will live on in our hearts and in my son as well because he is named after you. You were my favorite grandpa and I will always love you and remember all that you did for me. Rest in peace grandpa. Wait for me in the light and I will see you again soeday soon but not too soon. Good bye.
