A special person!!
My Grandpa just died
But he gave us his pride.
I took it slow though we must let him go.
He would always tell
How much he loved us so well.
Now he's an angel.
Just sit and lie
It's okay to cry.
I love him with all my heart
I wish we're never apart.
He loved his Cardinal birds
These are my last words...
Good Bye my Dear Grandpa
From your Gina, and grandchildren.
