You are the best grandad in the whole world. I miss you so much you'll always be my favourite grandad and I will forever be your only and favourite granddaughter. Everyday that goes by I think about you, it never gets easier. I hear your voice in my head no matter what you do could be "Cora that's too much paint on that roller" or the way you said "love you" when I was leaving. I miss your big hugs squeezing me and the laugh you always did when I'd say "grandad your crushing me" with the biggest smile looking up at you. I wanted you to walk me down the isle but unfortunately that couldn't happen but I have a little piece of you in my wedding ring so you will be there with me. Every Tuesday at gymnastics i will look to the window and see you and grandma stood there smiling cheering me on even if I fell or messed up, you didnt miss one practice session and you were always at my competitions with your camera out. Not matter how old I got you always wanted a yearly picture at Christmas or my birthday. There are so many things I want to say to you grandad I knew I should of come over I just felt like it was going to happen but its what you wanted, you was tired and worn out but you lived the best life you could. Was and still are the smartest man I know. I love you so much grandad, I need one last cuddle.
