My cousin's spirit became no longer earthbound, 8 years ago at the age of 44. His daughter, who was born the same day, and year as my daughter, became a mother last year, so he missed being able to have fun with his grandaughter. I know he would have been the best kind of grandpa, because all the kids that knew him, including mine, loved him. He was so much fun, they'd all say. And, he was. I miss him so much. His mom asked me to draw a picture of his grandaughter for her, and one for his daughter. Here are those pictures, and please excuse me while I shout to the heavens at my cousin "baby Alfred" (pet name of mine) "Love you "Alfert", and Nina's just too sweet." One more thing. "We all see that you passed on your dome to her making sure we remember you." Aww! I don't know about Nina, but I love her head just like I did his.
