I can’t believe its been four years since poppy left to watch over us with the lord. Its been the longest most difficult 4 years being without not only my grandfather but my ‘Dad’, since my brother and I was granted the opportunity to be raised by him. I miss him everyday but he has helped through the greiving in so many ways he’s still here sitting with me in his chair helping me stay open with whole heart loving and caring even though this world has become the opposite. I hope I can follow fully in his foot steps, but he did have some big feet so there’s a whole lot of love to give the world. Rip poppy till I’m with you again
