Like A light buld that gets turned off at night, or a star that loses it's light, you were there and then within minutes you were gone.

Your spark touched us all, and though your not here phisically we know you are here in spirit.

Your time on earth went by so fast, and we watched you fade away, your body left us but your soul is always with us, it is in our hearts to stay.

You changed our lives and we will follow your light, we will also follow are hearts so that we may see you again someday in heaven.

I wrote this after me and my family had to bury my grandpa. I miss him so much but I know that he is in better hands and thats all that matters. It's funny what brings people together. I would not wish him back here I'd rather see him happy and not suffering in anyway. I love you grandpa
