-For Those Who Have Heroes
When I look back at my life, 28 years old, I ask myself what or whom had impacted me most in my life.
Where did my journey begin as a child to where I have grown today?
Fond memories and experiences were created with my dear Grandfather, George Davies.
How they say the apples don’t fall far from the trees, I know I am not far off from his life’s legacy, left behind as a memory for those whom cherished and appreciated him.
I reflected on how much my Grandfather taught me as a child. How he and Grandma tried to instill the correct values into me as if I was a child of their own. Always be a good person, do the right thing, be strong in the face of adversity, and to never give up on your aspirations.
Grandpa inspired me in so many avenues, from teaching me about sports, talking about cars, and playing oldies music in the car. I especially appreciated the music sharing as I grew into my own pursuits of music.
He was a kind soul that showed his love through his actions. His dogs were always treated like gold by him. I’ll always remember the times we spent going out to get food or going to walk at the park. Coming back from the boardwalk and sharing with him all the prizes I won. Watching tv together in the living room. All precious times I will carry in my heart forever.
Grandpa, you will be remembered as one of my heroes, and the time I had with you will be carried in my heart forever and until the end.
