30 Years On

Today marks 30 years since my paternal Grandfather passed away. My Dad and I had plans to visit the grave and go to lunch, but he canceled at the last minute. So after school I took the Centerpieces to visit the grave. They were reluctant, saying they'd never met him. "You're just a link in a chain. Someday you'll be worm food, and your great-Grandkids will complain about the same thing, and God willing your Grandson will tell them how much he loved his Grandpa Smiley and make them go. So you're going."
