Finally got it . .

Post by sumner4991 »

I finally got that dreaded call from Virginia. My Grandfather passed away early this morning. He was an awesome man. Several times as a young teenager, I would be tempted to do something wrong and the thought of my Grandfather finding out stopped me in my tracks. I just didn't want to disappoint him.

He always said, "I'd rather wear out than rust out". He was 92 and lived a very good life. He was cutting his own firewood and working around the farm until late last year.

I'll be headed to Virginia to support my Dad, Aunt & Uncles . . .I'll need some support too.

My condolences Scott, sure sounds he had much to do with you growing up to be a decent person as you are. I sure wish I had someone like that in my life.

Scott,

My condolances. I lost both of my grandfathers two years ago. Only a week apart from each other. Cherish those memories and he will never really be gone.
