Rest in sweet peace, grandpa 💙. Grandpa, thank you for the countless card games that you let me win. Thank you for the shreddies with bananas we had for sooo many breakfasts. Thank you for making me feel like I was magical as a kid when I would snap my fingers and the light would change to green. Thank you for being at every graduation. Thank you for helping Nana send cards for every occasion. You defined compassion for me every time I saw you help your fellow veterans get their food before you ever did. You defined vulnerability for me when we shared one cry together the last time I saw you. I love you more than I can explain. 💙 You’re in peace now. Be free. I’ll be okay. 💙
