American patriot. That he was.
He gave us hope and spirit.
Grandpa, we love you.
I always will- WE always will.
Following on the wings of the Bald Eagle, we will follow you to God's kingdom.
We live you still, and always will.

Your loving granddaughter. We miss you.

My grandfather passed away recently and I wrote this poem during the memorial. I miss him and I always will. But he will always be with me and my family.
