Grandpa,
I will never forget growing up with you in my life. We worked side by side and we loved raising sheep. Walking in your front door, I always knew I would hear, with great excitement, "Well hello there Jenny!" I will miss you, but know you are looking down on us smiling. Don't worry, we will take care of grandma :) - love Jenny
