Dear Grandpa Jack

I have to say that tonight my heart is full. Right now I am angry and sad. Angry because you are one of my best friends, and sad, because of what you have had to go through. I am mad because of the pain that you have been in for weeks, and now they are saying that you may be gone tonight. I can't even explain how angry I am.
I know that where you are going is much better than being here, but I don't want to say good bye to you. You have been my grandpa for 18 years. You accepted me as one of your own when I was dating Josh. You are the only Grandpa that Josh and I have left.
We love you so much, and are so grateful for the great example that you have been to us. You are the one who taught me that even though life is hard stay positive. My favorite saying of your is" It's always darkest right before it goes pitch black"
Grandpa I love you, thank you for always being so strong,loving, positive, and giving. You mean the world to me. Grandpa you do what you need to. Just know that we all love you and support you.

I'm saddened to read this post about your grandpa. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers at this time. Hang in there - and if I can do anything to ease the burdens that are on you at this time, please let me know! I am happy to help in whatever way I can. We love you!
