    My grandpa pased 5 years ago and his birthday was yesterday my family didn’t care but I still celebrated for him beacaus he was my best friend and I love him so much. But at least he’s not in pain anymore and he’s happier there. I wish he was here with me today to see me start middle school and see me get married when I do and be a great gramma when I have kids. I hope he’s having a wonderful life now and I wish him the best of luck in his own heaven.❤️
