This is a post in loving memory of my grandpa Joe who passed away last night. I feel VERY fortunate to have got to see him yesterday morning with Jon, Fayth and my folks for a really nice visit! He actually looked great when we first arrived and went down hill from there! He passed away peacefully early last night in his favorite place...a recliner chair. No pain, no suffering, just fell asleep. Fayth got a special ring, from her friend Karolyn, and was so excited to show grandpa and put it on him. It was really adorable the interaction between the two. We will never forget our last time with him! He was always a wonderful grandpa to me and my sister and we'll miss him terribly. The "exchanging" of gifts at Christmas won't quite be the same...he LOVED shopping, giving gifts and receiving them as well. One of his favorite all time presents...a Nike stocking hat from me & Jon. He wore it for about 13 years...no joke!! We will be with my family in spirit on Tuesday evening and Wednesday when he is laid to rest. This morning we will be leaving to head back to Dubai. I want to remember my grandpa the way I remember him best...my "sneaky" smokin' buddy and funny jokster!! Love you grandpa...xxxoooxxx...Suzy.
