His name was Howard, and I loved him very much. He knew that, and he passed surrounded by all his children and grandchildren. I just wanted to say a little about him, and share him a bit with folks here. Isn't the same, driving past that house (as I've done twice today), knowing neither of them are there anymore. That'll take some getting used to...
I know you must be grieving, Paul. The loss of loved ones can be so very, very difficult for those left behind.

But, you are so incredibly fortunate to have lived in close proximity to your extended family, and to have been able, as an adult, to share quality time and conversations with your wonderful grandfather.

My heartfelt sympathies and hugs at this difficult time.
