Hey Pops, today is especially hard. Visited your place yesterday as always, sure you know that already. Is’s bd, all your cousins were there, how they’ve grown. Could just imagine you still towering over them all, being the kindest and gentlest person in the room. It all came so natural to you, guess that’s what makes it so hard. You know me, keep it all in, being stoic but its tearing me apart. So many things you would have loved but it all feels empty coz you’re not around to share it with. Is is growing so fast and she’s the same person, has to get it all right and perfect, it’s fascinating. Boy, you would have been so proud of her ... I know you are. Just keep holding my hand, I’ll pull through, you are still my strength. Always
