Please except my sympathy on the loss of your grandfather. Jack just called me and told me this morning. Please also tell your grandmother that I am sorry to hear that he has died. I remember how they took care of you when you were growing up. I pray that all is well with you and your family. It takes a lot of work with patience and endurance to raise a family.
May you turn to God and let him help you through this time in your life. God has sustained me all these years without your Uncle Jack, and without Him I would not have made it! I still love and miss him everyday and will until I can be with him again.
God Bless you and keep you from harm,
Love you Charlie
Aunt Peggy

Take each day one at a time, and cherish the enjoyable times/memories spent with your father/husband/pop pop. Bob, when arriving at the golf course, you will be reminded how your dad loved to golf and be proud to swing that club.
Sincerely
Mark and Michele Palladino
