My grand father passed away 8 years ago as of August. Not a day goes by when I don't think of him. He was the kind of man most of us work hard to be, but he just was. He was wise, caring and he didn't give a damn what people thought about him. Unapologetically himself. And he loved to make people laugh. He was the life of the party. Family get togethers just aren't the same without him. He taught me so much. He was also wicked smart. For a guy who didn't even finish high school and worked his whole life underground, he could fix or build you anything. Thanks for sharing. I love hearing about special people like that as it makes me think of him.
