After a year of my great-grandfather's passing, everyone in the family still grieves the death of this wonderful man. My Pop was kind, funny and caring, and he never faltered to show his love for everyone. Although my life has barely started, I will never forget my grandpa and the effect he had a me growing up into my teen years. I love you, Pop.
