He was my great grandpa and my best one at that, he was loving sweet and so much more. He cared for his family as a new fluffy dog, of ya he also loved his dog coco. He was a great person with a big heart and if you think different you better move aside. MY great grandpa was the best grandpa and I know that is true and will always be true.
