It’s so hard to believe you’ve been gone from this earth for almost 12 years. I love you with all my heart. You will never know how much your love shaped my life and the person I am today.
I think of you every year on your birthday even when you’re not here, it’s a celebration of the day you were born.
You brought sunshine to so many people’s lives and showed me what a decent person looked and acted like. Thank you for taking me in to live with you and granny as a troubled teen. You help change the trajectory of my life and I know I would not be where I am today without you to guide me.
Happy Birthday! I love you more than words can say.

I’m thankful gramps and granny took you in, too! I bet you added lots of love and energy to their lives. Happy Birthday, Gramps! Today is my husband David’s birthday. Now, we are both 65 until my birthday next month.

What a lovely tribute Mel. It’s so wonderful that you had such loving grandparents who could give you a stable home and model real love for you. Thinking of you and sending hugs as you remember your Gramps.
