I lost my November-born grampa thirty years ago, but he was kind and good, too, and I also still remember what it felt like to be held by him, how he also didn't waste time on ugliness, and what he smelled like, cigars and "pepOmints." And his voice. And his smile. Thanks for reminding me of him by talking about yours.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11695927.post-1131757734991021012005-11-11T17:08:00.000-08:002005-11-11T17:08:00.000-08:00an absoulutely beautiful and loving tribute to you...an absoulutely beautiful and loving tribute to your grandad!gulnazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04303326222747011474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11695927.post-1131699094971084702005-11-11T00:51:00.000-08:002005-11-11T00:51:00.000-08:00what a beautiful portrait patry.He came alive for ...what a beautiful portrait patry.He came alive for me in just a few words. I love that he and his wife waited until their families no longer needed them. It says so much about self sacrifice and filial duty.
