I just love all these stories!
For some reason, I feel close to my grandpa. We weren't particularly close before he passed away, but I knew he was always very very proud of me. And my grandma still tells me to this day "Your grandpa would be so proud" and I just feel like saying "I know" because I just FEEL it. He passed away when I was only 10 years old, and I remember when he passed I kept thinking of his voice in my head, the way he said things, because I didn't want to forget. And I'm sad now that I'm starting to forget. I think as proud as he was of me, I'm proud of him too!
He survived WWII and he farmed and held down as many jobs as he could to support my grandma and the kids. I just love listening to my grandma and my dad tell stories about him. When I went to that psychic, she told me there are two spirits with me, and I just know that one is him. Ahhh I'm starting to get teary at work now! I've never really talked about that before.
