We lost my grandfather and a great man a couple of weeks ago to an unexpected heart attack. He was seventy-four years young and no matter the age, your never really ready to say goodbye!! I know he is seeing Jesus face to face, reunited with family and friends and celebrating his new home for eternity, but I wish we would have had a little more time with him here on this earth. I'm so thankful for all the great memories I have of him. He was a huge part of my childhood. I spent every other weekend at his house for many years and even lived with him for a period in high school and summer after my freshman year of college as did many of my cousins and other family members. That's just the kind of man he was, taking everyone in that needed him. He was always taking care of someone up until the day he died, he was the rock and glue that held the family together and there will definitely be a void without him.
