As far back as I could remember, my Grandfather, has been a shining light in my life. When I was little he would babysit me, he was the one who I looked out to when I hit my first home run in little league, the man who took up bleacher space at every football game. He was so consistent in my life and all of a sudden he was gone…. The last time I saw him healthy was at my Aunt Liz’s house on Thanksgiving. “Psss “he would say, “come here I have a great joke or a story to tell you.” I would rush to his side because his stories and jokes provided a sense of comfort to me. Scotch in hand, sweater around his shoulders, he would start. Everything about him embodied happiness to me.
