Dearest Michele
It breaks my heart to hear of the passing of Papa. I have so many fond memories of us w/Gma/Papa while having our loud sleepovers, Gma telling us to go bed but we never did, always managing to get ourselves into trouble, all the while calling us her little M&M's and Papa always covering for us. Walking the dirt roads over & over during the hottest part of the day and eating popsicles. The best times were jumping on the bed w/hairbrushes singing NKOTB until we were hoarse. Those were the days I would love to go back too forever, with no care in the world, enjoying the simple things of life.
May you & the family find peace & comfort during this time & the days ahead knowing Papa is no longer struggling or in pain & he is now w/Gma walking the streets of gold in God's loving arms. I have no doubt we will all see them again one day. Until then, continue carrying on his legacy & live life to the fullest!! Be Happy- Papa would want that. I LOVE YOU SIS!!
