Dear Dad,
Went to the viewing for Grandpa this evening. Everyone said that Granny Harp had a better day today than she'd been having. I saw Julie and Steven and it was weird because of all the time that's passed since we've seen each other. I recognized Julie but I wouldn't have known who Steven was if I hadn't been introduced to him. Like you, Grandpa didn't look like himself. I didn't spend very much time near the casket. I hope the transition for Grandpa is going smoothly...I'm sure you did what you could to make it as easy as possible. It's got to be a humble experience to have your son welcome you to whatever it is after this life...usually it's a parent's job to making things easier. Though I'm sure things like that don't matter where you are. It's about so much more than I'll ever be able to understand here.
