My grandpa was only 8 years of age when he was left in this world to fend for himself. Life was pretty tough, but through hardwork and determination, he managed to survive and even started a family later. He married my grandma and had a total of 7 children, including my dad. They didn't have much money (my grandpa was even robbed once), but together, this couple brought up 7 kids into healthy young men and woman. We are now a big family, and everyone is married and have a job. A pretty happy environment, and we help each other out...be it financially or emotionally.
My grandpa loved me a lot... he would always give me what I want, so long as he is able to accomplish it for me. He would pull me away when my mom canes me, even when I was wrong
I find that my grandparents have taught their kids the right values even as they struggle to support everyone in the family, and these values are now taught to us... their grandsons and daughters. Knowing this, my grandpa left the world in peace.

BUT, my grandpa wasn't a christian. Did he go to hell? If so, I'd rather be with my grandpa, than to sit in heaven and watch him suffer meaninglessly.

I have lost five family members this past year. One of them a year ago yesterday and one a year ago Sunday. I would like to think about that they have made it to heaven.
I know some of their lifestyles and what the Bible tells us to do. What we must do to be saved. All we can do is leave this in the hands of a just God. We don't want anyone telling us anything bad about our loved ones. So lets just rest knowing a just God has it in control.
But rather focus ourselves on the Lord Jesus Christ and that we do what we must to make it to heaven. And that we help others also.

You are blessed to have a strong family. Your grampa must have been great to have around. I don't know where he is. I have relatives I don't know about too. I wonder the same thing sometimes. We just don't know. I have learned to accept it hard as it may be to do.
There are people who will tell you hell or heaven but they don't really know either. Only God truly knows the heart of any man. He is not bound by the laws that govern denominations, cultures or even the religious reasoning's of man.
may blessings and peace be yours.

Only the Father can judge your Grandfather, but don't worry. You will not be sitting in Heaven watching ANYONE suffer. Get that out of your head. He sounds like cool old dude, so relish his memory and try not to worry about things you cannot control.

Only God can judge a persons heart and soul at the time of their death.
