My Grandpa

This is my Grandpa. The only grandpa I've ever had or known. He is a good man. Always trying to do the right thing. The best example I know at journal writing. Fun & loving. Dedicated & giving. I'm going to miss him. He isn't expected to live but a few more days if that. This picture was taken just a few weeks ago on Christmas Eve as he joined us at my parents home.
I know that I can be a little sentimental so bear with me while I reminisce just a bit.
He loves all of his grandkids & great grandkids and he has always been a big kid at heart but for some reason Camdon has always held a special place in his heart. He just seems to light up when Camdon is around. If he didn't have a smile on his face already, the minute Camdon would walk in the room he certainly would. He would usually follow that big smile up with, 'theres my boy'
This picture was taken 2 Christmas' ago with most of the Whipple grandkids.

He has been so good to my grandma all these years and I love that about him.
Playing with Kamrielle a great grand daughter.
with Jaron
and once again with Camdon and his dog Minnie.
I love you Grandpa, always will.
