Day 11: A Deceased Person

Dear Grandpa,
Hi! I really miss you!! I miss you coming over all the time. I miss stopping by your house while taking a walk in town, and you always giving everyone an oatmeal cookie except me because I didn’t like them so you always had a chocolate chip one just for me. I miss you coming over to watch baseball. I miss going to your house on Halloween for you to see our costumes and you giving us money because you didn’t get any candy. I miss sitting on your couch or playing the piano for hours because I didn’t have my chair in your house so I couldn’t do anything else. I miss you coming over to get your weekly bag of Jolly Ranchers or Cream Savers, I haven’t had either since you left. I even miss the endless discussions between you, dad and (kind of) I about astronomy and physics, I say kind of because I usually didn’t understand half of what you guys were talking about. I’m sad that I didn’t get to see you very much your last few months…and that I never got to say goodbye. I’m sorry I didn’t go see you in the hospital…that I didn’t call and say I love you… I miss you so much and not seeing you or talking to you near the end will be one of my biggest regrets the rest of my life. I love you and wish you were still here. I can’t wait to see you again.
I love you, goodbye…
