PROOFReflections of Love and Influence...
Grandpa/Paw Paw,
Thank you for always thinking of us and making sure we were doing well. Thank you for teaching us not to let any-
one mess with us and to stand up for ourselves. We are going to miss you so much but we know you are in Heaven
with Granny, hanging out in your new mansion. We are so glad to know that you accepted Jesus in your heart and
that we will see you and Granny again one day.
Love always,
-Asaiah and Machijah
My grandfather was a very sharp man, he had his own way of
showing he loved us and never shy away from saying what's on his mind.
My Grandfather was classic in every way possible ... classic never goes out of style!!!
-Love, Amaiyah
Dear Grandpa this is going to be simple... you were my best friend..
-Love, Donavyn
Hey Old Man! You taught me a lot that I know,
It was like the best and worst day of my life seeing you go.
So many meaningful talks, walks at the park
and tucking me in when it got dark.
I'm so glad and sad that you are in a better place...
INSERT PAGEScoot over, let me in, save me a space.
Hey granny, Hey Pre,
I miss y’all too
Take care of the old man
Bye for now will have to do......
I Love you Old Man
-Tony Jr.
U were a very good man
No words can explain
Caring for others and
Lending a hand even in pain,
Everyone wants to be happy
But no one want to be in pain
U can't have a rainbow
Before the rain
But you lived how you wanted
After all you were a strong link in our family chain
-Love The Gladney Family
Hey daddy it's your daughter!
I will miss you tremendously, I love you, love you, love you…
You will always be my eagle that keeps watch over me!!
I'll get my car washed tomorrow!!!
Love you daddy
-Your daughter Briget
