<p>Although I have dealt with the fact that my grandfather passed away a few years ago, it still makes me feel sad inside. My grandpa and I shared so many wonderful memories that I cherish to this day and shall continue to cherish. We took amazing trips, like Willow Valley, which was my grandfathers favorite vacation spot. We especially went a lot when I was little. Every minute resulted in beautiful memories. My grandfather did amazing things in his lifetime and we shared so many inside jokes that are still a huge part of me. When my grandfather was getting extremely old and weak, he was still the most bright and happy person I'd ever met. His power in being able to smile through some of the toughest times, like when he was sick and his daughter (my aunt) passed away, truly inspired me and made me feel so confident inside. Even though my grandfather is not visually here, he is shining endlessly in my heart until the day I get to see him again. I love you so much grandpa, and because of you, I never stop smiling. <br>It would mean a great deal to me if you all took the time to read my grandfathers obituary because it is absolutely beautiful and meaningful tribute. We could all learn things from my grandfather, like I have learned to deal with tough times happily, because in the end you want to be able to look back on an amazing, tremendous life full of smiles. Thank you.</p>
