Our Pop-Pop was someone who knew how to make us smile and laugh. If you didn’t happen to laugh, he sure would… which in turn made you do the same. Jackson and Ava especially loved hearing him say, “Hello, bloke,” and it was one of those little things that will always bring a smile to our faces when we think of him.
Pop-pop was also an amazing storyteller. No matter what story he was telling, you knew there was always going to be a funny moment and an even better ending. He had such a way of making us laugh, and leaving us wanting to hear just one more story.
These are the moments we will carry with us. While I know we will miss him more than words can say, we are so privileged for the time we had with him and for all the fun and laughter he brought into our lives.
Love you, Pop-Pop.

My Pop- Pop was one of a kind. He told stories that would remain in your heart for so many years to come. He would cup his ear to hear you.. even if you were repeating something he said! Sometimes he would act like he heard you but he didn’t. Pop was a sweet, kind, proud grandfather that had loved and lived for his family. He was a strong, down to earth man. He could fix anything and everything. This is not the way I pictured losing him. I honestly thought he would live forever.
Forever in my heart — the greatest Pop ever.
I love you Pop.
