Dziadek - brakuje mi ciebie! I've learned so much from you over three decades. I will always cherish the memories we've shared...and will always think of you when I taste chili sauce, see orchids, hear a polka, smell pipe tobacco, play pinochle, or watch the Buffalo Bills. Every time I lose my wallet (and yes this still happens a lot) I often think whether I truly did lose it or if you hid it from me! Kocham was! Wasz wnuk, Michael
