This would have been a better pic if I had gone in on my big computer and scanned it in but I cheated and took a pic of the pic with my camera. This is me with my Grandpa! He would have been 90 years old had he still been alive! I had a very special relationship with him! He taught me his sense of humor!
He was my dad as he and grandma raised me and my sister. I always knew when he was teasing cuz he would have an eyebrow raised when he was joking with you!
He was a jack of all trades in his working career! He has done many things in his lifetime! He was a Teamster, he operated a fork lift, he drove a semi for a while, he worked on the Alaska Pipeline project, he worked on the building of the I-205 freeway, he fought in WWII in the Air Force (he was a bombadier) and he would never talk about it. He drove bread truck for Wonder Bread. He’s done many things! He was a realtor too at one point.
He was a wonderful man and I am glad he was part of my life! I will never ever forget the very special thing he said to me after Grandma had passed away.
I hope that he is watching from the heaven’s above! I love ya lots Grandpa! Happy Birthday!
Love always,
Blondie and Boo Bear

Wow. Very touching memories and sentiment. You look quite lovely, too!! I would have liked to have known this man, your grandpa. Thank you for sharing him with us.
What a lovely salute to your Grandpa! Knowing how you turned out, he must have been an amazing person – he is certainly reflected in your life every day. 🙂
Thank you!! I had a much better closer relationship with him than I did my Grandma!!
