RIP
You were the only grandfather I had in my life, that fact made me cherish you even more. I remember all the neat gadgets you used to make, my favorite was the one that would silence commercials and then the audio would come back on during whatever show was being viewed. I’ll miss you, until we meet again in heaven one day. Love, your grandson- Tyler Pfeiffer
