Grandpa,
From the time i can remember we have soooo many memories together. The ones that stick out the most are the summers that we spent together. Grandma and you took Lauren and I everyday to swimming lessons and eventually to the sail boats lessons when we got older. Then we would have our lunch packed and walk across the street for the afternoon at the ocean. The best part of it was driving over to the lessons asking to listen to Mitch Miller in the car. I will never forget that.We were also so lucky to have golf lesson once a week and then our a fablous dinners out going to the club for our fried chicken dinners. Even just haning out at the house going out on the boat or juming in the canel off the dock. This was the best. Having every summer spent with my grandparents out in Long Island. Grandpa i could keep naming so many things we did together but i am one very lucky girl to have these great memories especially now that you are gone. I am going to miss you very very much but you will be never be forgotten. I love you so much.
Love your oldest granddaughter,
Leslie
