Emilee Edwards
This funeral was many years ago, I was only 8. But there is never a day that goes by that I don’t think about this man, he has spoken saying he’d take me to prom, be at my wedding, or see me graduate, and it genuinely hits hard when you have to come to realization that he won’t be at any of those huge events. Turning 16 soon as a big age for a girl is something I wish he could attend. Nobody in my lifetime will ever be allowed to call me buttons, nobody could ever say that name and have it at the emotional length that my papaw had it. I speak to him nightly, knowing he isn’t physically here but I know he is looking down on me.
