2003 was the year that you could proudly say
how you had become a Granddaddy to a boy named Jay.
Now my son will be your legacy
because he also shares your name,
and as he grows he'll want to know
just how you used to be.
So I'll cry then smile all the while
that he's upon my knee.
I'll make it clear how very dear
I hold your memory,
and hide the pain as I explain
what a wonderful Granddaddy you used to be…...
