Grandpa Owen

Our beloved grandfather passed away Sunday evening. He had liver cancer and we were knew the time was coming, but no matter how much you prepare yourself the tears fall and the heartache hurts. So in between wiping tears, chasing kids, and sorting my emotions I wrote this poem for grandpa.



GRANDPA
Your love was so dear
With everyone far and near
Your hugs were tight
So perfect and right.
Those big Owen hands
Show “You’re the Man”.
A Grandpa to many,
A friend to any.
Your were mechanically good,
You fixed everything you could.
You were here,
And we loved you dear.
We’ll miss you so,
But now it’s time to let you go.
