The loss of another wonderful man in my life! My grandfather, Papa, passed away on March 8, 2010. He had been sick for a while, and though we are so happy he is with God and not in pain, we miss him terribly! I can't imagine holidays or even going home without him being there! He was tough on the outside but so soft, to us grandkids, on the inside! I have so many great memories of him and my grandmother! Papa called Ella his little jumping jack because after he got sick and was in bed most of the time she used to stand on his bed and jump up and down. Papa absolutely LOVED it!!!! We love and will miss you Papa!!!!
