Grandpa Frank

My Grandpa Frank passed away from a massive heart attack on Saturday morning. It was just a regular day for me, but for my mom and both of my brothers, they had been having feelings to go see him and couldn't sleep for the last week or so. Well yesterday I was pulling out of the driveway, almost hitting my brothers truck and he ran out with his son in his hand and I yell, "it's ok I won't hit it!" and he informs me my grandfather died. I sat in shock for a minute then ran inside to comfort my family. Just so everyone knows, my mom is my best friend in the WHOLE world, I would do anything for her. Well she was freaking out, as would anyone with this news, she was hyperventilating, screaming, just heartbroken. So her and my dad drove to the care center he was in and found out what happened. He was sitting down to eat lunch and all the sudden his head dropped, when the paramedics came he had a faint heartbeat but he had a DNR so they had no choice but to leave him. He did not suffer or anything which is perfect, but it just was not expected. My grandfather was the best man I knew, he loved his grand children so much and would do anything for them. When I went and saw him in his rest home a while back, he hadn't seen me in a while, and suffering from dementia he didn't remember me at first, but after a while it was as if I never had left his side his whole life. He began singing K-K-K Katie beautiful Katie over and over again, which made me cry, and is making me cry right now. We didn't expect his death to be so soon, but we did expect it to come. That's why it was so hard for us, expecially my mom and my brother Camron. Camron is very close to him and I have never seen him cry like that.. It broke my heart because if any of you know Cam he is the biggest hard a** you will ever meet! So I broke down when I saw him crying, then add when my mom was having a panic attack over it.. I really wear my heart on my sleeve it's very hard for me to handle death, not only because of the loss but because of other peoples feelings.. I find it odd that the day he died, our whole family was there, excluding Ellie.. I was going to leave to school early but didn't, Camron wasn't going to come up but did...It's just so amazing to me how things work out. Heavenly Father needed Grandpa Frank with him and he is having so much fun up there I know! We miss you so much Grandpa. We will miss all the funny times we had with you but can't wait to see you again!
