Today I am remembering Grandpa on what would have been his 98th birthday. Wow, 98. Grandma would have turned 100 this year. His legacies of family and faith and film are the three things that will always be with me. Love most of all. One of the greatest gifts we ever received were copies of his letters to Grandma in the early 1940s. How times have changed, and how they haven't. Reading of the movies they attended, the weekend excursions, work, family, visits to Evansville, furnishing their new home, clothing--so much has changed and so much is eternal.
Three additional things I will remember...The house on Anna and his impeccably maintained yard. Him always being so well dressed. And his smile.
Love you both.
