Dear Guillianna and Elijah –
Wanting so much for you both to know that no matter what challenges life brings – no matter how much heart break or sorrow has been in this life, there is a love that existed since inception or Nana and Poppy’s journey. That love has been tested and tried – it has been questioned and it twisted … it has brought a man if true integrity to his knees. All he ever wanted in this life was to be good, to be kind, to have a family and to help others. Each day he and I pray you will always be the best people you can , Choose goodness and kindness and allow love in your hearts always. We hope that you will know real love and truly know who all of the people in the Mitten state who have loved and supported you both and your family since the inception …that brought your journey to fruition.
This is your Poppy. He has been the patriarch of our family and he has experienced so much in recent years that words couldn’t possibly begin to explain it. But the one thing you must know is this – He loves with all his heart and soul. He is good and has only ever wanted to share love and kindness, bring happiness to others. He loves his children and his grandchildren so very much.
Never forget his dancing with you and playing with you- and always strive to share your smiles with every one around you – as he still does – With all our heart and every single part of our souls we wish you love smiles happiness always and forever –
XOXOXOXOXOXO
Nana and Poppy
