As of 2:30 A.M. June 1st, 2013, my grandfather (Appaw, we're southern) passed on. He's not lost, I know exactly where he is, but he is gone. He was a hero to me, and will never be forgotten. He was a smoker, and it finally caught up with him. We watched him go, with all his family with him, in the house he was living in, not alone. We said what we could, and let him know it was ok to let go. As a message to all, tell your loved one what you need to say now.We got the chance to, but just barely. Tell them you love them.
