Hey Grandpa Woody, it’s Tiff.
Wow, I can’t believe this happened. It seems like just yesterday I was sitting on your lap and giving you kisses. I always loved seeing your smiling face and hearing you laugh from stories you would tell me when I was little. You always told you to come back and see you. But I never did. I’m sorry. If I could I would change that in a heartbeat. I’m so happy that you’re not struggling anymore and you are free. God earned and angel. And I bet that he couldn’t be happier with you by his side. You are free now grandpa. No more hospitals, pain, needles. Nothing ever again. You live up there and you look down at all of us and you watch and protect us. I’ll keep a lookout in the sunlight, sunset, rain, clouds anything for you. I love you so much Grandpa Woody. I’m so lucky to love you. Don’t you ever in your mind forget that. Always your great grandaughter, Tiff <3 Miss you and love you always.
Our deepest condolences to the Coffman family
