i know people think that i should be “over it” and that it’s “not that big a deal” because the elderly die all the time, but no words could ever express how utterly devastated i am by the death of this man. my grandfather was the absolute most amazing and inspiring person i’ve ever met. a huge part of me is being buried as i write this with you grandpop. just like grandma said “i love you. goodbye until we meet again.”
today my grandfather passed away. he was the absolute most inspiring loving wonderful man i have ever had the honor of knowing. he had such a lively and infectious smile that could light up a morgue. he lived a life most people only dream of living. he’s met more wonderful people than anyone i know. he has taught me so much, like how to read the clouds, pick like Mother May Carter, and pour a beer just to name a few. I already miss him calling Emmy and sitting at the head of the Thanksgiving table. Playing the guitar will never be the same. I will always play for you grandpop. You have changed my life in so many ways and have made me a better person. No words could describe my emptiness right now. I can’t come to terms with the fact that you’re gone. I love you always grandpop. Rest in peace Jimmur
