Judy--remembering our one-of-a-kind father, grandfather and great grandfather on his 102nd birthday. He showed us how to be...
loving,
generous,
active,
inquisitive,
fearless,
fun-loving, compassionate,
forward thinking,
persistent,
unique...
Let's keep the list going!
***
Miri--
Hugging
Warm
Curious
***
Sandie--
Didn't care what others thought,
Determined not to be bored or boring. . .
***
Cindy--
Saba SaBaBa was a man who would dare to try almost anything but understood (and told me) that being a “daredevil” wasn’t the smartest way many a time. He would say that being a “chicken” saved lives, especially when flying.
***
Jeff--
Dad saw his glass as half full (not half empty)
- Made a plan for each day.
- Reached out to make new friends.
- Reached out to stay connected to friends and relatives.
- Like Grandma Lily, asked questions and listened more than he talked.
***
Andrea--Boppa Elliott
-Great listener
-Great story teller
-Innovative!
-Mischief Maker
-Always learning
***
Cindy
- He could nap while sitting in a tree
- He was a motivator
- He taught us about the two minute check-in call to G’ma Lily.
- He made sure we all knew how to balance a checkbook, change a tire and gave us each a simple tool kit/box/tub when we moved out into our own places.
