Grandparents are very special people.I have the best memories. The bakeries, the beaches,driving going 35mph. Going to the mens club to sit and watch them play cards when no childeren are allowed. The special hugs that you can only get from a Grandfather. Last but not least the fact that this Grandaughter could do no wrong in her Grandfathers eyes. I love you Grandpa.

Love Sharon
