When I think of heros; superman, batman, not even spiderman come to mind, but instead you do. On May 12, 2012, Heaven received a very special angel. Although I lost you, I have to remember you’re now in the best place possible and I only want the best for you. I collapsed on the shower floor and cried and cried when I found out, but then I stopped myself and thought why am I crying? God blessed me with the best grandpa anyone could ask for and that’s something to smile about. I remember all the good times we’ve had and will never forget them. They meant the world to me, YOU meant the world to me. You were my favorite person in the entire world. You were so cute I couldn’t help but be happy just being in your presence. It doesn’t even feel real that you’re gone. You were the most humble, loving man I have ever had the honor of knowing. You have shaped me into the person I am today and I can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for me. You were the best doctor Kentucky knew and delivered over 3,000 babies. Everyone loved you, how could they not? You stood up for what you believed in. You loved with every piece of your heart. If I have learned anything this past week, it’s to never take what you have for granted. To cherish what you have before it’s too late. And to be more like you. I looked up to you so much. I kept looking for you in the sea of family members, forgetting that if I wanted to be with you I just had to look into the sky and realize you were watching over me. Your legacy, passion for life, touch, kisses, sweet words and just you in general will never be forgotten. As I’m writing this, I’m wearing your sweatshirt, I hope you don’t mind. It still smells like you. I miss you more than words can define. I’ll miss your smile the most. The most genuine smile I’ve ever seen that was always on your face, no matter what. If only I could see that smile one more time, or hear you call me “my sweet love” once more. One day, I hope to be with you again. Until then, I will carry a little bit of you with me wherever life decides to take me. I love you, forever&always, Superhero Granda <3
