This isn’t really a memory as much as it is a look in the mirror. I knew one grandpa from my birth until he passed away in 1993. The other passed away fifteen years before I was born.

Grandpa worked at Stokley’s right here in Peru just a block from his house. Both my grandpas were tough men. They worked hard to take care of their families.
