John was my grandfather, an his passing will be hard, but i couldn’t thank him enough for always looking out for me, even through hard times he always had your back not only being mine but the people i love as well, he was always determined to help and give to others, he not only has he benefitted me by giving some awesome memories that i’ll never forget, but doing everything possible to make sure i have a successful future, always taking me to the batting cages, supporting me during school advents, and teaching me some pretty valuable life lessons i can’t thank him enough for. i’m really glad on the bond that we created, an beyond blessed that i was able to help out when it was needed, i will see you again some day pop i love you always- ava
