A note to a grandfather,
Pepere you have seen and been through so much in your lifetime, you have always been there to help when help was needed, to listen so that others would be heard, to feed those that were hungry, to care for those that were sick.
Now you are with the one you loved to the last of your days, you both can rest in peace and watch us all from above, I will treasure the moments you have shared, I will forever remember the stories you have given us to pass to our children and grandchildren.
I will never forget the man that would sit and eat with blank stares out the window enjoying the meal as it was prepared, the man that enjoyed his baseball and hockey games and never left without shinning his shoes,or wearing a cap.
You have givin everything to all of us without ever asking a thing in return.
staying so quiet and thinking so much Thank you grandfather for the time and stories and love you have shared..you will be very missed and always be very loved..love you, your grandaughter...linda

Hugs and Kisses to my immediates, as well, for I cannot be there to give them to you in person--Danielle, David, Christopher and Kaitlin--If any of you need anything, you know where to find me. Lots of Love, The Houghton Family
