I love seeing family over the holidays. I come from a very large family that has gotten much larger over the years. Today it dawned on me that so many of my nieces and nephews never got to meet their grandpa (my dad) yet you would never know it from talking to them. They have all heard the stories and felt the love that those of us who did know him share frequently with them. In fact today it was my brother’s son who wanted to “go see grandpa” so we loaded up the snowmobiles, rallied the family, and did just that. Each one on my nieces and nephews have the spirit of my father living inside them and they are better people as a result. It makes me proud and happy to be his son to see the positive impact my father still has in his grand kids lives. I strive to be that same kind of man…love you still, dad.
