I lost my Grandpa today

[FoxintheSnow]

I knew it would be soon. I lost my grandma earlier this year to cancer. I knew a 90 year old man with a heart condition couldn't last long living on his own. I just hoped he would make it till December when I planned to visit him (Im in FL, He's in NY) so he could meet his great grandkids and see me one more time. I'll miss the way he talked about his love for the Yankees and the story I've heard a thousand times about how he once shared a cab with Mickey Mantle. I'll miss his little conspiracies about how my grandma was trying to sneak cheese into his food, even though he hates cheese. I'll miss watching Wheel of Fortune with him (with the volume as loud as it can go) and his witty comments about the contestants. I'll miss the birthday cards (with the cute $10 check) he always sent out for everyone's birthdays.

Rest In Peace Grandpa Charles

He sounds like one wonderful Grandpa. I'm sorry for your loss. I didn't want to pass by without offering a hug. :

I want to cry for you ... yet I am smiling inside too... it is so sad to loose those we love ... but such a blessing to have had them at the same time ... I recently past the one year mark of my mothers passing and it is still so fresh... she is in a wonderful place right now, and that gives me such comfort...
