Now to this day I do word puzzles at work. Working with the elderly at a health center always reminds me of him and how these elderly need someone just like him. Thank you for keeping smiles on my face great grandpa. white_frowning_faceheart

My favorite memories with my great grandpa is when he would sit and do word puzzles and tell me stories about him being in war. He would also tell me about great grandma and how much he loved her. Eating all the cookies in his closet with him. Never a dull moment I miss you so much great grandpa. I love you. heartsob🥰

Best memory with my great grandpa was when he’d tell me that he use to sit me on his lap and sing me songs. Being around him growing up he’d still sing me songs that he did when I was little. Every story he told me will always be remembered and kept in my heart. heart

When I was in elementary school I loved spending time with my grandpa so much, that I would go to the nurses office at school saying I didn’t feel well & when the nurse would leave the room I’d run the thermometer under warm water just to have my grandpa pick me uplaughing I laugh now because there were times I almost got caught by the school nurse & im sure my grandpa knew I was faking it most of the time. We would always end up going to Burger King to get a original chicken sandwich then go home. First he’d get his rosary out and do his prayers then after that it was grandpa & Nicky timehearts We would do word searches, puzzles & watch people’s court & talk shows together. I will truly miss his presence & will always cherish the loving memories he gave me
