I'm so happy you are pain free. Your battle was long you fought it as long as you could. You loved your grandkids so much and they all remember your love, your hugs, the way you played guitar, and funny humor.
You always had an answer to my questions, advice for me when I needed it, you were honest but most of all you were always there for me even if it was an hour or two late.
I miss you so much and I wish you were still here cancer free helping me raise these crazy kids.
Happy birthday Dad. I love you and I hope your jamming out and smiling down on us.
