My grandpa died 7 years ago, he was 77. I loved him so much, and still miss him every day. And I remember those days sitting next to him, watching him sleep, and feeding him ice chips. So sad, and so grateful, all at once. <br />Gwen (from class)Gwen Papphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18199507214063130756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214489875213933536.post-4892046364771258372011-04-25T14:07:36.159-05:002011-04-25T14:07:36.159-05:00I'm cracking up through the tears.
