I was extremely sad to hear that Grandpa Grosswirth passed away this week. I was fortunate enough to have talked to him about a month ago, and he sounded as funny and happy as ever, of course. I can't remember a time when he wasn't happy and ready for a fun time out. I loved him with all my heart, and remember having the best times and conversations, ever, with him from the time I was a child, up until recently at the age of 26. I feel like no matter how much older I got, he was getting younger every day. He was most definitely young at heart. He is a prime example of how I want to live the rest of my life...living every moment to it's fullest, making the best of every day, and being the best at everything he did, most of all, the best family member that we all could ever ask for. I was told he pointed at his wedding ring and looked up at the sky, smiling, before he left us, and that just makes me happy to know he is back with Grandma Grosswirth, and the two of them are having fun, watching us, and enjoying their eternity together above us all happily! I will miss you Grandpa, and see you in years to come! Love Justin, your favorite and only Grandson.
