Father, Son, Grandson The father embraced the grandson, Yet he was the one in need of comfort. His arms wrapped strong, but tender, ‘Round his son, the grandson of his dad, Suddenly gone from the two of them. His head cradled on the shoulder of the grandson, His eyes closed, his body and soul, Soaking up the comfort of one so familiar, As they came together as father and son, To bid farewell to their grandfather and father

Breaks your heart but what love this man gave and so many lives touched...you have a right to be very proud...for every tear that shed for him, is the love he gave to deserve it...Love and hugs, Bonnie
