Dear Grandpa,

22 years ago today you left this world because God needed another angel more than we could ever know. I wish I could have gotten a chance to know you better and spend more time with you. The closest to a memory I have is that picture of us, you know the one where you are holding me and we are both asleep in the recliner? That is my favorite picture of you. I know you are looking after us, and I really hope you are proud of me. And hopefully, someday, I will get a chance to really get to know you. I miss you, and I love you!

Love,
Brittney

If you don’t get in the water you’re never gonna learn to swim
He said a snake is just as scared of you as you are of him
He could tell by the moon when the fish would bite
Seems there was nothing that he didn’t know
And as a kid I believed ’cause grandpa told me so

He talked daddy into letting me have my first car
I thought I was really something ’til becky thompson broke my heart
That first taste of love really did me in
Getting over her slow
And I knew someday I would ’cause grandpa told me so

He said life is made for you to live
The best love is the love that you give
There’ll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go
And I live by those words ’cause grandpa told me so

I promised him I wouldn’t cry when it was his time to leave
That’s the only promise I made him I couldn’t keep
He smiled from his bed and said we’ll meet again
Somewhere down the road
And I believe ’cause grandpa told me so

He said life is made for you to live
The best love is the love that you give
There’ll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go
And I live by those words ’cause grandpa told me so

He said life is made for you to live
The best love is the love that you give
There’ll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go
And I live by those words ’cause grandpa told me so

Yeah and I still believe
Grandpa told me so
Grandpa told me so
I still believe
Grandpa told me so
I still believe...

for some reason i have a feeling posting this song might make beebee feel worst but it wasn't my intentflowerforyou

I was lucky to have a wonderful grandpa. He died when I was 35 and
my daughter was 10 so she was lucky enough to get to know him too.
So sorry you didn't get to know your's longer. Cherish your memories and know he is watching over you. He will always be in your heart as you were in his. You will always have your special angel keeping watch over you. So sorry for your loss. flowerforyou flowerforyou
