Gramps,
We made a million memories together and I thank you for every one. We had many hockey trips that were long hours of travel and early mornings, but you were always there to support me. We had countless fishing trips that took us far places. I have so many great memories of our Fish Lake trips. You loved to watch me catch perch from the boat ramp. I always loved when we would hit the road to Canada for some pike fishing with Uncle Bryan, Carter and Colten. There is so much I value in everything you taught me as I wouldn't be who I am today without you. You were my best friend from the day I was born and I always looked up to you. There are many things that won't be the same without you. I will miss you standing in the corner watching the hockey games with coffee cup in hand, watching you catch the next big fish and our birthdays that we always spent together. There's a huge piece of me missing now that you're gone but I will see you again. I love you so much grandpa. Meet me at the gates.
Love,
Cody
