Grandpa, I'm going to miss you so much. I'm sorry that there wasn't anything else I could do to help you. You always had me laughing. I know I called you old a lot but you were, haha. It sucks that I won't have anyone to take me to the restaurant anymore. Nobody to laugh at me when I'm up early in the morning or being crazy as ever. You always had great stories. I loved listening to them all .Even if I heard them before. Don't worry I'll take care of Molly. Shh, don't tell but I'll keep her fat! I can't believe you're gone. I love and miss you so much Grandpa. Thank you for everything.
Love,
Adrianna
Gramps, Thank you so much for taking me places when I needed a ride. You helped so much. You always laughed at me, oh how I'll miss that. I'll always keep our parachute wave to myself. It always made me laugh. You were such a crazy old man but I loved you so much. I will miss you so much and I will never forget our funny times. Remember when i sprayed you with water while cleaning the car? I love you and miss you.
Love

oh dad, you left us so suddenly it still doesnt feel real. I miss you so much.
Walking past your room and not seeing you there is heartbreaking. Molly isnt the only one that feels lost.
Thank you dad for all you have taught me, for being there when I needed you, for kickin me in the butt when I needed it and for being the best dad a girl could ask for. You were a caring, hardworking, funny man who was loved by so many. I can't begin to imagine how our lives will go on without you. Please give mom a big hug for me. I miss you both so much. I never thought my heart could be this broken. I love you dad. Thank you for giving me one last Christmas day seeing you smile.

In my youth, fresh out of high school, Bob & Joan (my sister) took me in for a spell. Bob was ever generous with his time and help. He taught me a lot about auto mechanics and other things (including a lot of corny jokes). I will always remember snow skiing on the roadside drifts in West Olive, MI being pulled by Bob in his red Model A pickup. Bob was truly one of a kind and I am sure that he and his sense of humor will be remembered and missed by all who knew him.

I wish I would have had more time to get to know you. I love you and miss you. My love and thoughts are with the family. You will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace.
Love,

Grandpa,
Every morning since you passed, I walk by your room and almost hear you hell out "HEY!". I was so used to our usual early morning banter that I just kind of took it for granted. I miss all of our political arguments and your colorful opinions of my car, but mostly I miss your smile and laugh. You and Grandma were ALWAYS there for all of us no matter what and I'm so lucky to have had you both as such dominant forces in my life. It's still impossible to believe with how quickly you left us, especially since we always joked you'd outlive everyone! You never let anything get you down and were surrounded by friends and family until the end. That is what comforts me the most. I love you and miss you Grandpa. I hope you're having one hell of a party up there :)
Love, Heather

Grandpa,
It sure feels weird to not have your jokes and stories around the house. Who's gonna keep us all smiling and laughing even during the worst of times? Was so nice to hear the stories last night and to repeatedly hear how funny, loving and caring you are - not just all of us that think so. It's definitely the memory you left with all the lives you have touched and I'm so very thankful that I am included in that long list! Couldn't imagine my life any other way. Hard to believe it was actually your time to go, with such short notice, but I'm sure you're having a blast and catching everyone up on what they've missed out on. Know that we will all misss you and love you, but the memories will keep us smiling because you wouldn't want it any other way!
Love,
Amanda
