To my bestest friend in the world and the most perfect grandad I could ask for,
I hope you know I think about you every single day and I still to this day try to follow in your footsteps always.
You are the most incredible man in my life and I honestly am the luckiest girl in the world to have you as my bestfriend.
You mean absolutely everything to me grandad and I love you more than you’ll ever know.
I learned one of our songs on my guitar recently, “You are my sunshine” and I’ll forever listen to Engelbert Humperdinck for you.
I will forever overload my food in black pepper just like you and everytime I laugh at something I’ll know you’re laughing with me too.
I will never be able to describe just how much I look up to you grandad, for you I am and I always will be forever grateful to have you by my side.
I always want to make you proud
Lots of love Tia❤️xxxxxx
