The amount of respect & love we hold for you & Big NaN is beyond compare. I can’t fathom the pain that she is in , but we know you’ll be with her everyday and us as well. Bc that’s the way you always have been. So no this for sure isn’t good-bye, it’s like Alli said it’s a “ see ya later†...

My heart is shattered. This man meant the world to me. I can not imagine the pain that is weighing on my Grandmother's heart right now. The world is missing a very amazing man. He was so very special. He was just incredibly impressive with all that he did, his love for life and his family was unmeasurable. I will never forget what he would say to me when he would come in for lunch and I would ask how he was doing. He would always tell me, "i'm fit as a fiddle outta tune". I was blessed to have lived and spent the years that I did with him. I got to watch and learn about him in a way I never would have. Heaven gained not just a angel, but one of the two best men I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I love and miss you Pa!!!!
