Dear Grandpa,
It’s been about a week since you’re passing. I have to say this is a lot harder than I ever imagined it would be for everyone. I’m happy you are at peace and no longer struggling in pain, but it just isn’t easy for me. I don’t know when it will become something I can let go of, it might never be. I know I’ll have you right beside me, knuckling me in the back and nudging me forward and onward in life like you used to when we were little.
Grandma is doing alright too. I call her everyday to talk and listen to her tell me about her day. She sent me your favorite cap, and I plan on wearing it to the side just like you did. Sunday’s don’t really seem the same without talking to you. Grandma is a strong woman, and I know she’ll be okay. But I know that if she really was upset I don’t think she would tell us in fear of burdoning us. So I hope you look after her and remind her that we are here for her always.
I love you Grandpa and I miss you so much.
