My grandpa died yesterday and it fucking sucks. He was probably the coolest man I ever met in my life and I am going to miss him.

 

Some Cool things he did

 

Navy WW2 Veteran

Merchant Marines Vet

5x years of police service

Oldest active duty cop in the country

Helped Charlie Hill start Scioto Downs and managed it for 40 some years

Order of a billion different lodges in the Masonic temple

Was Knighted and belongs to the royal order of Scotland with my dad

Was big enough to kick my ass (He always used to say that lol)

 

A really cool guy gonna miss his old timey arrogant ass

The Funeral was yesterday it was really hard for me but I was blown away by the Sheriffs office they did a great job. He was laid to rest at union cemetery yesterday and had a 21 gun salute and a bunch of bag pipers. The FCSO also did a last communications call to his badge number twice and then said he was out of service and may he rest in peace over the county radio (I cried like a bitch) any ways I have had a week from hell and luckily grandpa left me about 4 cases of scotch.
