Grandpa,
I love you more than you will ever know. More than the amount of times we said it to each other, more than the million opportunities I wish we still had. I will forever cherish your infectious sense of humor, smile and the way you simply said "that's GREAT!". Weather what I was saying was important or not. Your positivity and love for all was never outmatched. Weather it was picking wild raspberries or climbing the rock on your back 40 (at the time i thought was a big as the moon), there is a million memories I will cherish and share with your grandchildren. They will know the kind of man you were. Genuinely one of the kindest, nicest man one could know. I look forward to the day we get to meet again.Â
I love you!
Kyle

My condolences to Sally & her family. I met him only one time but during that one visit from Texas, I just loved this man knowing he was a great dad & grandpa to my nephews. I thought of him often keeping in touch with Sally. She would always say he just thought the world of us but it was him that made an impact on me. He will be missed but I'm praying those young men will carry on his love for family and the love of life. God Bless & rest easy Mr Belt â¤
