I know everyone was hit hard in the last five years between grandma and granpa passing, but as a family we can do whatever we set our minds to do. Everyone just needs to buckle down and work as a family to fix the damages. We need to stop fighting and just work together no one being selfish and everyone caring for eachother and respecting eachothers thoughts and listening to what is being said. I love all of you so much, and Grandpa i love you and miss you dearly.
