Unhappy Its been a very sad day

Today,my wonderful 85 yr old granda died. The entire family are gutted, he was such a genuine lovely man. He could fix anything (and often did for me) was always there for us all. He knew the answers to lots of things and taught me so much about life. I think EB got her love of nature from him as he was a great gardener and she followed him round the garden as soon as she could walk. It seems so cruel that he left us on the nicest day of the year so far. Heaven has gained a new star tonight, and Belfast has lost a true gentleman. Nite Nite Granda, we'll always love and miss you xo
