Dear Grampy,
I don't know if you can hear me, but I have to tell you anyway. I love you so much. No one is ever going to mean, what you meant to me. You were my only Grandfather, the only one I'm ever going to have. I know that you have more than one granddaughter, but I just hope you know that I love you, and I know you love me. Last year, before you started getting sick, you came over for dinner and when you were leaving you gave me a hug and said "I love you Tracy, no matter what happens, you know that right?" That's how I know you still love me now, from where ever it is you are. When you lived in Colorado, and you would come a visit, I would cry for hours because I didn't want you to leave. Sometimes I would go to bed crying because I missed you so much. I remember when you first moved back, I played that game of cribbage against you, and SKUNKED YOU! Horseback riding is always going to remind me now, I never got to really thank you for the lessons. Now every time I ride, in the back of my mind I'll be thinking of you and how you're watching over me, seeing me happy. I can imagine you smiling, its so good to see you smile' even if its just in my mind. Even though it hurt watching you come back just to get sick, but at least you got sick here, at least you got to be with your family though the last few years.
Grandpa, I will never forget you and what you mean to me. I hope that where ever you are, you don't hurt any more and you're enjoying the freedom. Even though I know you're in a better place I wasn't ready for you to go, so stay with me in spirit for as long as you can okay? I love you
Your Granddaughter,
Tracy
