Happy Birthday Gramps


Today my grandfather, ZMN, would have been 100 years old. He called my sisters and I, his grandees. His favourite phrase, which has become my motto was "And this too shall pass"


I remember the last time I saw him about 5 years ago. He had lost his sight due to glaucoma and was a bit forgetful. He did remember to ask why we were all wasting time and not married! As a parting comment, he said we should not be sad if we this was the last time we saw him as he was definitely going to a better place. I believe that.


So from one Grandee to an amazing Gramps, Happy birthday.
