What a gorgeous ring! It is your engagement ring, right? grandma gave me a smile. Tears made her brown eyes quite bright. Remember the words grandpa said? I asked her, that October night. She shook her head no; which to me was a sad sight. Alzheimer’s had taken away much of grandma’s sweet light....

We are now in a refreshing state, where experts are in. Grandpa was a prophet, a sage, a sharp wizard too. He can upright the...

Where is grandpa’s red devil box? Each grandchild asked this as we entered the home. It was a box grandpa had teased us with since we were young. We all wanted it. There was only one of course. He used to chase me around with it, Barry told us. I wet my pants once when he told me what...

Wish you were here, Though your time has come; The days seem so shorter, Since you've been gone. You have not failed us, As you have gave it your all. Family will now guide you, No need to fear the call. You have chose selfless actions Among family gone before The clouds have started moving The skies are all so clear. So take your place in Glory As...

This is what they used to do, Grandpa's made their own rules, Sit on verandah on sunny morn, Read the sport, paper at dawn, Then to read the obituaries, Ensure still alive, you see, Finally, they passed to glory, Grandpas so loved, their story!...
