Pops – I used to love it when you would come by my house to see your granddaughter, Aliciana. You treated her like the princess she is and she loves you so much. We both do. We will always be family. It was such an honor to help make you comfortable before you crossed over. You are free from the earthly chains and the pain it brought. Rest peacefully, we know God has you.
