Grandpa Bill. The King's grandfather. He passed away yesterday. I wish I could have known him better. Distance separated this part of the family from that part of the family. What little I knew Grandpa Bill....he was kind and funny and seemed very loving of those close to him. He was always quick with a story....usually a funny one or one with a lesson at the end. He was there for The King's birthday...the year I did "the cake" (a post for another day). Grandpa Bill and his wife Evelyn have seen a few of the boys ball games when they could. They always seemed to enjoy being here, and we enjoyed seeing them whenever they would pass through town. So, as you earn your wings, Grandpa Bill....be sure to keep your eyes on the south every so often...we call can use another angel in our corner.
On a lighter note...I have inspired a blog! She's just moving into her YaketyYak. All of the nice things that she said about me.....I can return....DOUBLE. She was the first one to call me when I was a new BOA. She's always been sweet and kind and ready to listen. I'm sure great things will be happening at the YaketyYak......so go ahead...pay her a visit. She's a great mom...so I'm sure she has snacks!
