My Dad has always loved me like I was his, and I believe that is a reflection of your love for him. I carry it now to my own bonus daughter. That is a multi-generational lesson in love that you started and we will carry forward. You are free now from the pain that held you back from all you loved. Rest easy Grandpa. Big hugs.
