Letter from grandson Jakob to his Papa as read at the Rosary 11/10/2005

About my Papa

I remember whenever I heard the ice-cream man I would go to papa’s house and there he would be with a new dollar. I remember when my mom and I would go eat over at papa’s house, papa would say I’m the meanest guy I know, but the next day we came over and he would say He’s the nicest guy I know – and he is the nicest guy I know. That’s why I would always want to be with him forever, because he always stuck to my side. When he would watch me he would never let anything happen to me. That’s why I love him with all my heart. Also, whenever he would watch me he would give me a walky-talky so he could call me if he needed anything. Sometimes when I visited he would do the bear trap. That’s why I would want him to be here – because we would always do stuff together.

I love you Papa, love your grandson,

Jake the Snake!
