Grover gave us this book many years ago . . .
Then, he borrowed it back, re-read it all again, but I think he added some post-it notes and highlighting.
Often while working in genealogy, I wonder. . . "but, what did he think . . what were her values. . . why did they do that?" With Grover's post-it notes and highlighting, we pretty well know his values and beliefs.
We know what he read. . .
We know how he would have felt about Democrats . . .
Proverbs he thought were good. . .
He would not have been a fan of "Big Government". . .
He was a child of the Depression. . .
A romantic,
And he loved our dog!
This one really puzzles me since he had no daughters, but he did have four granddaughters that had him wrapped around their little fingers.
These granddaughter wanted a special pose for their grandfather. . .
They called themselves "Granddad's Angels". . .I'm not sure that was the kind of "angelic" he thought they were.
Happy Birthday, Grover---we miss you.
I loved this blog! I have a picture of my father in almost the same pose with our dog, whom he adored. She felt the same way about him!
