Dear Grandma and others who read this, I am so sorry that I cannot be there. I am blessed to be your grandson. My words will be insufficient to express my feelings in a time such as this. I have always been a proud grandson. I remember the stories Grandpa would tell of his seminary days and hitchhiking around the Country. I remember him preaching on a few occasions. He was great at Brad and Heather’s wedding. At Thamesford camp I was amazed how everyone we would see had a fond memory or story to share. Grandpa showed me great love and provided me such a great example for my life. I know I have his laugh and sense of humor. My dad says I have some of his voice in me too. I sometimes catch myself chuckling at something funny or a funny situation and then thinking that he would have reacted the same way. I am a Christian today because I grew up in a Christian home that began from him. I thank God for Grandpa. I will miss him but also rejoice because I know the new heavenly life that is now his for all eternity. I also look forward to seeing him again someday. I love you Grandma and look forward to seeing you soon.
