He used to call me his favorite granddaughter (I am his only granddaughter, but we won't mention that).
I lived with my Grandma and Grandpa Hill while I was in High School. They are very near and dear to my heart. My heart is sad that I will never talk or see him again in this lifetime.
My Grandpa was in the Canadian Navy. He married my Grandma in 1950 (they just celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary). They had 4 kids, Charles, Elaine, Sherry, and Lauren. My dad was their only son and he died in 1975. They are reunited again today. This makes me happy.
I will miss him playing his steel guitar, pushing his wheelbarrow around, sending packets of funnies he cut out, his phone call every other week, his loyalty, his smarts, his smile.
You were the best Grandpa ever. I love you. Forever.

The last time I saw my Grandpa was 6 years ago after Alec was born.
