My Grandpa Rupp had pancreatic cancer, and his battle with it was very short- about 6 months. It was a hard thing to watch him go through because he was very sick. It was very hard for me to lose him too. I was close to my Grandpa, but like my Dad, I know that he still lives! I know that he is not really gone! I know that I will see him again! That will be a great day!!

My Dad said,
"Losing my Dad was one of the hardest things I have ever went through. For several weeks after he died, I missed him very much. The pain was almost overwhelming at times. I think the thing that brought me the most peace was realizing that he is not really gone. I know he still lives, even though I can't see him or be with him. I feel like he is very much a part of my life, even now. I believe that is one of the tender mercies of our Heavenly Father in that He has allowed my Dad to be a part of my life even after he is gone. I know that I will see him again. I can't wait for that day so I can give him a big hug."
