Today marks one of the hardest moments my family has every been through. God took one of the best men off the earth. My Papa was one of the best men you could ever meet. Loving, caring, hard working, there was not a bad bone in his body. He would do anything in the world for anyone.
Two months ago Papa got a bad case of pneumonia. After a month of not getting any betters the dr.'s decided to do some more test, only finding out it was much more than pneumonia. He was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. The dr.'s said there was still hope. He could start chemo and maybe have another year or two to live. A week later the pneumonia comes back and he is admitted into the hospital. From there on he never had a chance. They couldn't do the chemo with him having pneumonia. Within days the cancer had spread tremendously. On January 29, 2014 he passed going to a much better place. I am so glad he did not have to suffer months in that hospital but also wish I would have had more time with him. Loosing something is the only was to make you realize what you miss.
I couldn't have asked for a better set of grandparents. But also could have never been blessed with a better set of great grandparents for Payton. That man loved Payton more than anyone could explain. And down to the worst days at the end all he could talk about was Payton.
This isn't goodbye.. It's just see ya later.
Love you Papa.
