I found this and it made me think of both of you.
"To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty; To find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Both your grandmother, GG and your dad, Tender, obviously succeeded. I can tell by how much loved them.
I'm thinking of you both.
