Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

My favorite memories were many, visiting every summer break from school, thanksgiving. Christmas break, wwf, ufc, and I remember showing him Jerry Springer for the first time around 2001. I witnessed the respected hard worker he always was and inspired me to be. If not for him I might not have been a happy kid because he was always making me laugh without trying. There is not enough space on here to express how much I love and miss my grandfather but I am grateful we were able to see each other one last time. The last memory I will cherish forever. - Posted by: Rene Catcheway (Grandson) on: Dec 15, 2020
