I learned today of the death of a man known in my family as Grandad Skipper. He wasn't related to me, either by blood or marriage, but I loved him as though he was. Although I am sad that he is gone, I rejoice in the knowledge that he lived a long and full life. He was a true gentleman, with a heart full of love, and who in return was loved by many.Saturday, 2 January 2010
A True Gentleman
I learned today of the death of a man known in my family as Grandad Skipper. He wasn't related to me, either by blood or marriage, but I loved him as though he was. Although I am sad that he is gone, I rejoice in the knowledge that he lived a long and full life. He was a true gentleman, with a heart full of love, and who in return was loved by many.
