Ken was my grandpa for all of the life that I remember. He married my grandma when my mom was in her early 20's...or somewhere around there. Even though, he was officially "step" grandpa...he is the grandpa that I remember with my grandma while she was alive. He was the grandpa that sent birthday cards every year. The grandpa that we saw every year at Christmas. He was always a positive person and was always happy to see us.
I know my grandpa is much more comfortable now. He doesn't have to suffer any longer as his body shut down on him, but he will be so missed. It hasn't settled in on me yet. When you don't see someone often...the feeling of them actually being gone usually comes later.
The funeral will be on Monday and I am glad I will have a chance to see his side of the family and mine.
Family functions will be quite different as Grandpa Ken will be dearly missed.

Thank you for posting a picture. I could not for the life of me find a picture of him yesterday. It is true, family functions just won't be the same without him.
