I didn't get to say goodbye to my grandpa, I didn't even know he was that sick. One day I was on my way to work and I got a call from my Dad saying that Pop had died, I was like what???? How come no one told me that he was dying? Needless to say I couldn't work that day. Death is not fun, I hate it! Even though he was my step grandpa he was still my grandpa. I love him and miss him terribly.
