My grandpa passed away
So, as some of you know, I went to Norway just under a month ago to see my grandpa before he died. Well, last night, he did. While at the nursing home, he developed pneumonia (on top of the aggresive cancer), and they decided to end his long suffering and took him off meds on Saturday.
I'm glad I got to see him last month
Rest in peace grandpa!

I'm sorry for your loss. My Grandpa died in 1992, and I still miss him. My prayers are with you and your family.
For the morning will come. Brightly will it shine on the brave and true, kindly upon all who suffer for the cause, glorious upon the tombs of heroes. Thus will shine the dawn.

My grandfather raised me to the person I am today, and having him pass a few years ago was tough, but hey they are both in better places today and im sure you have great memories to pass along.
Sorry for your loss

Sorry to hear that Kai. I'm glad you were able to make it back to Norway to see him though.
There’s a promise I need you to make
While I’m gone you take care of the love
And I’ll deal with the hate.
Don’t worry about me; I’ll be all right
Just care for your children and sleep tight
I’ll keep you safe on my watch tonight

My condolences to you and your family. May he rest in peace.
A Smile
A smile cost nothing, but gives so much.
It enriches those who receive it,without making poorer those who give.It takes but a moment, but the memoryof it sometimes lasts forever.
None is so rich or mighty that hecan get along without it,and none is so poor but thathe can be made rich by it.
A smile creates happiness in the home,fosters goodwill in business,and is the countersign of friendship.
It brings rest to the weary,cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad,and it is nature's best antidote for trouble.
Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed,or stolen, for it is something that is of novalue to anyone until it is given away.
Some people are too tired to give you a smile.Give them one of yours, as none needs a smileso much as he who has no more to give.

Sorry to hear that, I now how it feels to lose you grandfather who you were close to. I lost mine in 2001, but we found out the next week that my wife was pregnant with our first son.
