Grandpa passed this afternoon.
My mother says it was peaceful and that Grandma is okay, better than the rest of them. I am still very worried about her because I know how hard it is to lose someone you love, let alone someone you've been with for more than sixty years and have raised a family and grandchildren and great grandchildren with. I can't even imagine.
He meant a lot more to me than I ever realised. He was like a father to me when my own was never around. He used to have horrible sounding nicknames for all of us, but they were endearing and full of love.
Family is supposed to be invincible, especially grandparents.
