Grandfather by default

I came into this world without any hopes of having a grandfather. My parents had been raised by single mothers and neither had a good relationship with their fathers. But in 1988, I became your first grand-child. Because although I wasn’t your blood you never treated me otherwise.  My favourite place to sit was always on your lap to listen to all the old Pennsylvania stories or when you unsucessful tried to teach me Pennsylvannia Dutch. The example you have set as a man of God, Father will always be with. I will also remember the summers spent with you and your family. My first boat ride, first swim in pool , all that were made possible because of you. There are so many memories , it would take this page and lots more to tell them all. You showed that love transcends race, colour in the way you have treated us. RIP my love . See you on the other side.
