My fondest memory will be when him and I used to sit in front of the television at his old house in California and watch Home Alone 2. He loved that movie and he laughed so hard everytime he watched it. I'll miss him dearly and I'm aware of how to handle the situation, I just don't know if I can.

Ryan...my heart goes out for you , I can really feel your loss and nothing ill say will make you feel better , cause nothing but time takes some of it away.
I have fond memories of both my mother and father , and when I lost them both when I was 6 ( they died together) it was a huge tramatic loss for me .
I then lost a child a few years ago ( I dont talk much about this ) to leukemia ( she was 4) and you never really forget it .You go on you live , but you cherish the memoies you have with them , the things you did , and all that goes with it Ryan. Keep those great times with your granddad and remember them .Dont be emnbarrassed about your feelings and feeling and reacting the way you did , even prepared , was never easy.
When my daughter died in 2001 , though I was preepared and knew there was no hope left it didnt make it any easier like you it still didnt make me feel I could conquer it , I did with time ...time does wonders Ryan.
Take care of yourself
Cheryl

It's just part and parcel of life's rich pattern bud. It happens to everyone. What helped for me when my Grandad died was thinking that I was lucky to spend 21 good years with him in my life and thinking about the good times. When you consider that some people never even knew their grandparents it helps you to realise that you were lucky to spend time with him. That's something I'll never take for granted, because my Grandfather with like my second Father. I hope you're ok buddy!
