Granddaddy,
I’m so heartbroken and torn inside. Even though I didn’t get to see you as much as I would have liked to, I still love you with all my heart. I always looked forward to seeing you when I came to Georgia. Tell my dad hi for me. Miss you. We’ll see each other again one day. Till then you have a blast up there with Jesus. To all the ones you left behind, y’all stay strong and keep granddaddys memory going. From Texas and the Ambrose fam, we love you and our hearts and prayers are with you. Sorry we couldn’t make it to be with y’all but circumstances were just not right. We’ll be down soon for Thanksgiving. Can’t wait to wrap all y’all up in our arms. ❤❤❤❤
