Just wanna ask eveyrone for thought and prayers for me. Im really haveing diffucult time with my Grandfather passing. I am the oldest Grandchild and feel a sense of responsibility that I need to look after all my cousins, but right now Im so drained and exahusted with a throbbing headache and I didnt drink any alcohal at all. I was the last family member to see him alive and talk to him. Thur after we picked Deion up from Diabetes camp we took the boys to see him. We were there about 1hr and 45 min. Got ready to leave about 945. Tavon shook his hand and gave him a hug and said I love you Pow. It started really hitting me then. I told him I wouldnt be up Fri but I would be back Saturaday after Deions Doubleheader. I said youll still be here right. He said I dont know. He was ready to go and I think he knew it. Well I dont say I Love you often,but when I shook his hand and held it I told him I Love you! He said I Love you Too. Started walking away and he mumbled something. I thought I heard what he said but went back in and asked him what did you say. He said I Love You All. Thats exactly what I though he had said as I was walking it out! I knew right then it wasnt gonna be long. The nurse gave him a sponge bath after I left and changed his shirt and it was fitting that she put his Palmer Field green shirt on. That his the shirt he had on when he passed away. Very fitting his life revolved around family and Palmer Field. When he passed he had the Palmer Field shirt on and all us Family members there with him. Everything he would have wanted. I feel now I have to be his mouth piece and try to live like he did. With him saying I Love You and then saying I Love you All twice to mebefore I left. I feel he was telling me something and passingsomething down to me. Sjust a little story I had to pass along to each and everyone of you about my Grandfather last few hours on Earth. Again I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your continued thoughts and prayers and as my Grandfather Pow (Norm Gerhart would say I LOVE YOU ALL!
