Thank you for this. I lost my Grandpa early. He was just 50, he gave me the gift of his love and my Dad really missed him as well. This year we lost my Dad and all I can say is that I would give anything to have he and my Mother back for just one more day. Love is God’s greatest gift and I thank you for the reminder!

I think about all the memories of past Christmas and how hard my mom worked to make each one special. As a newly joined 50’s something couple, me with a 24-year-old and him with a 17 and 16, I struggle to make things perfect and make everyone happy even his Ex. Reading this made me think, and hope that the time we spent with our boys (and my son’s girlfriend) playing a Disney Color game and UNO Christmas night with laugher and having fun will someday bring up a memory of how much I love them and try every day to help them become good young men.

I so appreciate that you continue to publish his stories and pass on the gifts he shared over the years.

I found myself smiling as I read each word and seeing it unfold in my mind. I was very close to my paternal grandfather. We have so much to be grateful for! Merry Christmas,
Suzy
