May the Angels Lift Him

My grandfather passed surrounded by family and friends. May the Angels lift him up and be blessed by his presence. He truly was an inspiring, caring and loving man. One of his favorite songs in the last few years... "All I wanna do is have some fun.." by Cheryl Crow.
He will be missed and always loved.

    Oh Cris, I am so sorry for your loss--I was hoping he would have a little more time with you.. but yes the angels are very lucky to have him there! By the way you talked about him I bet he has some good stories to tell everyone up there about his time on earth...I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.......

    It will be the little things you remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter.

    And although it may seem hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that help push away the pain and bring the smiles back again.
