Default Rest in Peace Grandpa

My Grandpa changed my life in so many ways. He passed away this morning at the age of 63.

My Grandpa gave me so many oppurtunities... He bought me my 2007 Mustang a few months ago, he pays for my flying lessons, he helps me with college, he's helped me to see the world... the list goes on and on.

He will be missed.

Rest in Peace Grandpa

I'm sorry for your loss, he sounds like a great man. Do you mind if I ask why he passed away?

He had open heart surgery about 6 months prior to his death... he was doing great. A few days before he passed away we were out doing yard work together, then suddenly his heart failed in his sleep.

I usually went over to his house once a week. He lived an hour from me but I'd go over and mow his yard with his nice ride on lawn mower and help him out with anything
