The c monster strikes again

It is with immense sadness that I have to report that the c monster has struck again. Boy we sure hate that monster. My beloved gramps walked over the rainbow bridge this past Friday. We had not posted about it sooner because he was just admitted to the hospital literally one week before. He was diagnosed with cancer within days and we were told he only had a few days to live. All this was a whirlwind and we were beyond shocked. He was one of this men that never complained about a pain so he didn't worry my granny. He would take care if my granny as best he could and never wanted to see her worry. Granny and gramps were married since they were 17 and a can only hope to god to have a love like theirs in our lifetime. I lived with them all my life until I got married myself so he was really a father to me and we miss him terribly already. He was always full of laughter and that is what I'll most remember about him. Even on the hospital bed in pain he was cracking jokes. He was one of those people that made your stomache hurt from laughing so much. We are holding strong for gramma. We have to keep her spirits up now that he is watching over us. He would have been 92 on March 24th. I guess their is going to be a in pawty now at the bridge on that day. Please keep us in your prayers. Especially my granny. We love you all and thank you for checking in on us.

We are so sorry your grandpa passed. Mommy's mom had cancer, so she understands the disease's affect on the family. We are glad he had such a happy life and left you all with good sweet memories.
