This picture I chose, is a picture of my Grandpa and I. My grandfather was my best friend who I always looked up to. He was my role model in life. Whenever I needed someone he was always there, or whenever I needed advice he was always there. We had such a great relationship! I spent a lot of my time hanging out at his house with him and my grandma. We pretty much had a great bond that I cant’t even explain.

Hearing this song just makes me realize he's in a great place and It was time for him to go be healthy in Heaven. I love hearing this song because it makes me think of him. When the song says, “We’ve got five more hours of highway, five more hour to go” just makes me think of how he was coming home but he was actually going home to heaven. It was such a weird coincidence that this song randomly played on my aunts ipod.

Heaven was a better place for him at this time, I'm sure he didn't want to suffer much longer and have his family see him like this when all his life he was a strong
