Krsityn's Tribute to Gramps

Post by barbaranoela »

Tell ya---these 2 grandaughters of mine surely pull on my :pulsinghearts: strings of moving me to tears and being soooooooooo proud of them---

Kristyn(who will be starting college @ Syracuse) wrote an essay---to the VA scholarship adminitration---on a Vet that U admire and how they changed your way of thinking -- one being *everyone in life is *important* weather they are HIGHER UPS or your everyday person doing a good job-----This Gramps always taught them----including our children----

Can U guess who she picked??? RIGHT--U guessed---Gramps Louie--
Well this had him in :cry: which he tried so hard to pretend he had to clean his :glassesclean:

She did such a terrific job--- Kristyn is a great composer of words and defining her thoughts on life and living!!!!
How xcited I was to read what she wrote about her Gramps :tigerpoobearhug:

Thats wonderful. You have a right to be proud of both your "girls". So glad for Louie to have this honor from Kristyn. I know you are both very touched.
