I miss you Grandad. 67 long days have gone by since you left us. It still doesn't feel real. The 2 main links of our chain are gone now you and Nan are no longer with us. I would give everything and anything to see you one last time, to cuddle you and smell your scent. You were the best Grandad in the world, and me and Wayne were the luckiest children alive to have you and and Nan in our lives. I won't ever forget our days out and torturing your ears by making you listen to Pj & Duncan over and over again on our way to our regular Saturday shopping trips. You never use to complain, but that was typical of you Grandad. Always putting everyone else's needs before your own and making sure everyone else was happy. Although I cry tears of sadness I can also smile at the good times we had like our trips to Paultons Park. A memory that always makes me and Wayne laugh is the time we went out and had a picnic. You were sat in the drivers seat drinking your soup and I wanted something from the boot of the car. I pulled the lever on the side of your chair thinking it was the boot, only for it to be the lever for your chair. You were flipped forward in your seat and ended up wearing half your cup of soup. Even then you didn't tell me off, I think you, Nan, me and Wayne had a good giggle. I can't actually remember being told off by either you or Nan, I'm sure I gave you plenty of reasons to do so though, or maybe you both just brought out the best in us. Thankyou for all the wonderful memories Grandad. I will cherish every single one of them forever. Life isn't the same now the heads of our family are no longer with us. The days are definitely a lot less bright. I will hold you and Nan forever in my heart until we meet again. Always on my mind and forever in my heart. I love you both always.
