"TommyBoy"
I've been up since 3am with such a heavy heart and tears in my eyes. I lost my Grandfather "Pappy" yesterday in a car accident. He was the greatest man in my life and the father I never had. My grandparents were truly more like my parents to me. He was my hero and my mentor. My grandparents were the most important couple in my life growing up. They were more than Grandparents, to me they were everything. I've prayed almost everyday in my life and especially for lord blessing me with such wonderfull grandparents. My grandmother "Nanny" passed a little over eight years ago and that was the hardest loss I've ever felt. My grandfather had lived on by himself since her passing. He was a very strong man in life. He was a WWII Navy vet, a Mason, A Shriner, and held the longest Commander possition at our American Legion Post. Not only was he a proud vet but he also had a heart of gold, helping out people and children less fortunate and needing help. He was very active in his church and met his friends for coffee on a daily basis.
His passion was also Hunting and fishing which ment everything to him next to family. He taught me everything in life and was the reason I joined the Navy as well. I would like to think I could hold a candle to him but the truth is I never will. To me he really was simply, that great of a man.
