    I'm sorry for your loss, I'm sure you'll miss him, but what a treasure to be with your grandfather and granting his last wish as he passed. You done good, and I'm sure it must have eased his passing.

    It is wonderful that you were together. My sincere heartfelt sorrow for your loss. It's been over twenty years since I could sit and visit with my Grandfather O'Neille, but I can still remember our times together like it was yesterday.

    My sincere condolences, and congratulations on having the priceless opportunity to pipe him out. I'll pipe a lament in his honor tomorrow, and lift a glass to his memory tonight.

    Sláinte!

    Deepest sympathy on your loss. I lost both of my grandfathers while I was very young. I have no memory of one, and only fleeting glimpses of the other. I wish I could have been as close.

    My sympathy on your loss BP. You did a wonderful thing for your Grandfather.

    Stories like yours make me more resolute to return home next year. I'm lucky that my Grandfather is probably one of my best friends and I miss spending time with him (and him me).

    I hope you and your family's pain heals soon.

    I'm so sorry for your loss.
    It's wonderful to know that fulfilled his last wish and made his passing a little easier.
    God bless you and your Grandmother, if she is still living.
