James,
You were such a man,
And I am honored that I remind Grama of you,
The funny thing is,
I don't remember you,
And I..left out that I hadn't gotten the chance to,
But whatever memories I have of you,
Of what you leaft behind,
I will charish them until I get to meet up with you back in Heaven,

But, yet again,
I feel a connection,
In the things we share,
I am glade to have known you in the short time spand that I had gotten to know you in,
I am thankful to have Granma hear,
To tell the stories of your's and her's youths,
To tell me 'You are just like you'r Grandfather' with a big smile on her face while saying each word....
