Grandpa Wood

One month ago today my wonderful Grandpa Wood passed away. It has been so very hard to lose him. He was a great man and a great grandpa to me and my boys. He was 95 years old and he has been like a dad to us for the 18 years when my dad died. He took great care of my mom and all of us kids up to the day he died. The day before he died I called my sister and told her that she should come say goodbye in case he died. She came down to see him and 30 minutes before we were going to go see him, my aunt called and said he died. We went to see him anyway and said goodbye. It was so hard to see him like that. Then that night I went to the mortuary and gave him his last hair cut. That was the hardest thing I have ever had to do but I knew that I wanted to be the one that did it. He always asked me to cut his hair and I knew that he wanted it done before he died and I feel bad that he was too sick for me to cut it. I love him and will miss him so much. I feel a little selfish in thinking that I still want him here, but I know that he is now my dad (his son) and my grandma. What a joyous reunion that must of have been. I would love to have seen the great big smile my dad had on his face when he was reunited with his dad. I love and miss all of them and I am so grateful to have had them in my life and my boys life. Till we meet again.
