Today I came to see you, to say my last goodbye, to wish you well up there in the sky, whilst you watch my life go by. I know you'll be looking down on me, my children and the family, guiding us all and letting us know, you're there for us wholeheartedly. I know you're very proud of me, loved me lots and lots. You understood why I turned my back and understood my reasons not to look back.
When I left your home today, it made me feel a bit sad, that I'll never come and visit, seeing you paint the house like mad.
But it also made me smile, thinking that you're free, to probably wind Grandma up, while she makes your cuppa tea.
I remember all the times we had when I was a little girl, we'd play and just be crazy, you'd always make me twirl. Then we'd raid the secret draw, you stashed with chocolate just for me, Grandma would tell you off, for ruining my tea! You always told her to go away, I remember to this day, it made me giggle sat on your knee, until it was time for more play.
You made me feel so happy, loved me every time, I got to come and see you and said "come anytime!"
"Carra, what do you know?" I'd tell you same old stuff, then you'd talk about Leeds United, try and call my bluff!
Your door was always open, even though I couldn't come much, you never made me feel bad, you both understood. Grandad you're back with Grandma and Smokey doggy too, I'll think of you, mouch as well and remember, I'm little Moo 💛
I'm gonna say Ta-Ta for now and remember all the memories, I have of you both growing old and remember all your stories. I love you Grandad George, will miss the open door but glad you're back with Grandma, couldn't wish for anymore.
R.I.P. Grandad 💛💙💛 Love and Hugs for you both, Your Granddaughter Caroline, the one from Leeds, who nobody knew but you and Mouch xxxx
