Grandchild

Olivia Peros

Walter was a wonderful grandfather, I remember he always had a little bowl or Werther's Originals on the table and he would tickle me every time I would try to secretly steal one. He made me borscht soup and he would always wipe my purple mustache. He was so fun and so loving.

Dear Jody,
We were so very sorry to hear about your Grandfather's passing. We didn't know your Grandfather very well but from all the wonderful things you told us over the years, we know he was a very special person. We know you were very proud of him and that he was a good and loving Grandfather.
We hope you take comfort in knowing that he will be watching over you and your girls and keeping you all safe.

With Deepest Sympathy,
