my sweet, sweet Ethan- I love you more than all the stars in the sky.

our granddad

A boy needs a Grandpa... For man-to-man talks, To go hand in hand On companionable walks,
To fix up his toys When they no longer go, To tell him the things Little boys want to know.
A boy needs a Grandpa...To show him the way To handle a puppy, To teach him fair play.
To impart bits of wisdom He's learned through the years,That it's no disgrace For a man to shed tears.
A boy needs a Grandpa... To sit on his lap And if no one is looking, They take a wee nap,
Each wrapped in an aura Of love and esteem, Each smiling gently At some special dream.

my heart is heavy tonight as I write about Larry or as we called him, Granddad. It does not seem real, it is not fair and my heart is broken because we will miss him so much.
Granddad....
loved his grandchildren-from the second they got to his house until they left he had a smile on his face.
always had ice cream for Ethan! He would always ask Granddad for some of his ice cream and it did not matter what time it was Larry would always say, "Give him some ice cream, it won't hurt him."
would put everyone on his golf cart and go down to the pond for a quick ride
would do magic tricks for Ava and play ball with the boys
was always so silly with the kids
loved going to the farm with the kids and seeing them feed the cows
so many memories we have and will cherish about the
wonderful man we called Granddad
