I miss my grandparents so much. Its been almost 20 years since my grandmother left and almost 9 years since my grandfather left. It hurts, it really does. I love my family very much. Their voices still echo in my head. My grandmother used to sing or hum the song "how much is that dog in the window". My grandfather used to tell stories of when he was growing up. They are the best grandparents one could ever ask for. I miss you grandma and grandpa - Posted by: Mathew Schwager (Grandson) on: Feb 09, 2012
