"I'm not random, I just have many thoughts!"


You laughed with us on Christmas
you brightened a halo on those nights
And when the times were rough
You offered an aura of shining light

You were always thinking of us
As we were always on your mind
And you had a wonderful life filled with loved ones
as we had the same wonderful times

When the times we dark
You didn’t let us get down
You shared the faith
that rough times turn around

On fourth of July
You filled the house with laughter
and you in my life
will always be a thick chapter

I wont let your light in me die
It will burn strongly and bright
I love you grandpa
As I try for your spirit in me
to take it’s flight

My Grandfather fought for my country, he deserves to have his name live on after death, and that is why i am proud to share the name of our family with him
