To my grandpa, my Poppa:
You were the most loving, the wisest, the strongest, the most stubborn, the most funny, the kindest.
You prayed for me every single day.
It’s been a rough couple of years for you, and I know you wanted to go and be with Jesus. Now you’re there, and I know you’re happier and more comfortable than we could ever make you here.
But I will miss you more than I can express.
Love you.
“Keep your stick on the ice.”
I’m thinking of you today. I miss my Grandpa too.
Awww, honey. I’m sorry.
{{{{Big hug}}}}
What a beautiful way of saying goodbye. The thoughts of this long time lurker will be with you today.
He’ll still pray for you every day. I know that my grandparents do.
Oh, Meg, I am so sorry! I was not expecting this today, and I’m feeling a little shocked and quite sad. Prayers are with you.
Meg – I’m so sorry about your Grandpa. The loving memories that you will carry in your heart will be there forever–for both of you.
Take good care.
Condolences to you and yours Meg – what a touching tribute!
So sorry to hear this news Meg. Thinking of you and your family.
Lots of love to you and yours.
Meg, my thoughts are with you at this sad time.
That was beautiful. Blessings to you and your family.
My condolences to you and your family, Meg.

I’m so sorry to hear about this, Meg.
I believe that some leave this world to make room for the new ones and its a bit of kismet us meeting like we have this week… your grandpa goes and my son is coming.
Thanks to your grandpa for making some room on the bus for my little guy.
I’m really sorry to hear about grandpa, Meg. Your family is in my thought and prayers.

So sorry Meg. Cherish those memories and he’ll always be near.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Your post is a wonderful, tender and loving tribute to someone you obviously love deeply and who was–equally obviously–a fine hockey player.
Hold tight to each other until this eases.
He sounds like such a precious man. He is free now. But I am sorry you are without him.
I’m so sorry for your loss, Meg. I am sending you all my warmest thoughts and prayers through the miles. Much love to you and your family.
Oh no! I’m so sorry Meg.
Oh Meg, I am sorry. I know there is nothing deeper or inexpressible than the loss of someone you cherish, but you have done a beautiful job of eulogizing an obviously wonderful grandfather and man. My thoughts are with you and your family in these dark hours.
Meg. So sorry. Thinking of you.
He was a great man.
Beautiful thoughts.

Oh Meg! I’m so sorry…I just checked your blog for the first time since Thursday. I will be thinking of you and praying for you and your family as you miss this wonderful member of your family. It is a comfort to know that he is in a good place, but it doesn’t make us miss them any less. You’re in my prayers.
