3/22/2014 Today the world lost a great man. I dont really think its really hit me yet. Thought for sure hed out live us all. But this morning he passed away. I didnt even see it coming. I had no warning. My papaws gone. And I didnt get to say goodbye. I didnt get to tell him that he was the worlds best papaw. He was a stubron old man and boy could he talk your ear off. But thats the thing. Every word he said had meaning. Every lecture he gave was out of love and wanting to see everyone around him do the very best they could and get the farthest in life as they could. Hes made mistakes in the past but had been trying really hard to make them up. And in my eyes that makes him an amazing man. Anyone who knew him. Actually knew him. Would agree with me when I say there is no one else like my papaw Howard Burns. He can never be replaced. There wont be a day that I dont think about him. Not a day that I dont push myself to do my very best because I know hell be watching and if I dont boy will I have an ear full when I see him again one day. It pains me to see that ues gone. So I cant imagine how my daddy and mamaw feel. All I can do now is be there for them. I havent cried yet. It hasent fully sank in yet. I will cry. But then again crying wont bring him back. When he use to lecture me I got so tired of them. But now? Id give anything to have him here. Talking for hours. I wouldnt mind id sit here and listen to every word. I love him a lot. So much. And I already miss him dearly. I wish we could have had more time with him. But deep in my heart I know. GOD ONLY TAKES THE BEST. And he was in fact. The best. R.I.P papaw howard you will be missed dearly. I love you.
