I don't really remember my grandpa that much, and I was also very young when he died, but i've seen countless photos of him and the family. I wish he could've lived long enough so that i'd actually be able to get to know him, instead of having to imagine what he was like through family photos and old stories. My dad always tells me how he used to go fishing with him (a LOT), and how he and his brother spent a lot of time with him. They collected Pokemon cards, had cookouts, and even went on a few long road trips with him. I wish my grandpa had lived longer, so that I could've actually known him personally, because he sounded like an interesting guy to know.

I look around this house
Both outside and in
I have so much to do but
I don't know where to begin
So I tell myself I need to focus on
the task at hand, yet somehow
my heart doesn't seem to understand.
I try to start on the daily chores I should do but then in the stillness those old memories flood my heart and soul like a bright light they come shining through
Then I decide maybe I need sit for a little longer, just a bit so I tell myself the same old lie.... it won't be long , its only until I dry my eyes from this raging river of tears I've cried.
I remind myself it's only grief, I can get through this. I know I will, It won't be long until this heartbreak will cease and
my weary and troubled mind,
will at last be at peace .
For then I know I will be on the other side of my sorrow, yet as the hours wear on ,
I begin to realize it might not be today or tomorrow.
I sit and stare out the window at life passing me by, I feel like my whole world changed
the day you died.
I know you would want me to be strong, and that you would remind me Life goes on.
So once again I will try to do the the things I should, and I will smile at those
sweet memories of us,
when times were good.
Honey, just to let you know we will be okay,
in my heart I knew your time here was done
sadly, you could no longer stay
And so I promise you one thing,
so you don't worry none ....
Be patient with me, I'll get the job done.

For Roger
My heart was breaking
More than anyone knew
As I held your hand during
your final hours and I prayed to God
for the strength I needed, and tried to grasp that it was time to say goodbye to You.
My heart ached to see your body so badly broken, bloodied and bruised and I felt so helpless knowing there was nothing I could do to ease the pain, - that I knew you had to be going through.
We thought at first that you had the strength to pull through, no one doubted your recovery would be long and hard but we all believed that if anyone could do it.... It would be you
As the moments turned to hours
And the hours to days, your condition started to worsen, and sadly our hope slowly began to fade. Still, no one wanted to believe it, and the good Lord knows, we prayed and prayed.
The Doctors told us they were sorry but there was nothing they could do, we sat by your side and through tear dimmed eyes, one by one, we said our heartfelt goodbyes to you.
I felt the the weight of the world on my shoulders, my burdens seems too many to bear. Each time I would see our beautiful Children though all grown Adults they seemed so young to me, at times.... It just didn't seem fair.
In the quiet hours, before the night gave way to Dawn, as I sat by your side, and talked to you, I would gently hold your hand.
Though you never spoke a word, sometimes you would turn your head as if to say " I hear you and I'm trying to understand"
Our Five Children will be your Legacy, as for our five Grandchildren it will be the same. Our two Sons David and Joshua will honorably carry your name. I know you were do proud of the Men they have became.
As for our three Daughters, Carissa, Sarah and Diane, they have grown into such beautiful young women, yet no matter their age you still thought of them as Daddy's little girls- you never stopped worrying about them, I don't think that would have ever changed.
You will live on in our hearts forever, although without you, ours lives will never again be the same.
Sadly, in recent years, I no longer wore your ring, yet in my heart I look back at the love we shared and I know when it came to Marrying You, I wouldn't have changed a thing.
As tears streamed down my face
I told you we all knew you had fought a good fight, you gave it all you had and while it was heartbreaking to let you go we realized God apparently had other plans.
I took your hand once more, and told you the only thing that eased my mind
Was knowing all of your worldly pain
Would soon be left behind.
I hope someday when my time is near that you will reach out to me and say
" Honey, take my hand and follow me I
am here to lead the way"
then once again we will be together as we walk hand in hand, our love will live on forever in that blessed Promised Land.
So as myself and our five Children all say goodbye, it's one of the hardest things we will ever have to do, yet I believe our precious Son, Joseph Daniel
will say " Welcome Home Daddy, I've been waiting on You."
