A poem for Dad.
He never looks for praises
He's never one to boast
He just goes on quietly working
For those he loves the most
I Love You Dad

Grandpa, Life will go on. It has to. The lessons we all can take from you and apply to our lives and the lives of your great grandchildren will keep your memory alive. No one is really gone until their name is no longer said aloud. You and Grandma will always be remembered.
