    I couldn’t find the words to say exactly how I feel about Grandpa’s passing so staying true to my ways I decided to write a quick poem to Grandpa to say it the best I could.
    Being out here so far away,
    I still felt your love everyday.
    You were always so nice and friendly to all you met,
    You’ll be the one to open the gates for us all I bet.
    I couldn’t get back to say one last good bye,
    I know your looking over us all soring so free and high.
    You touched us all in such a way,
    that we will always remember you every day.
    I love you Grandpa.
    I am truly sorry that I couldn’t find the money needed to get there and hope that everyone can understand. even tho there were a few years that I didn’t get to see him in reality I always kept him close to my heart just like all of you. I know that no words I say can measure up to how I feel, but know that I love you and love you all there is not a moment that goes by that I don’t think of our family back home. I love you Grandpa and always will. You’ll be in my heart and memories always. Love Melissa.
