Two of the most amazing, kind and generous people I know happen to be my grandparents. Whenever I think of Nan and Gramp I can't help but get a huge smile on my face :) I remember Nan always reminding me to eat my vegetables, and so lovingly yet strongly encouraging me to eat my peas. I remember many games of Crazy 8s, Solitare and Skip-Bo. I remember Gramp in his work jumpers telling me all about what type of apples they were growing and which fruit trees were blooming. I remember all of the fun summers up at Lake George, swimming, waterskiing, playing wiffle ball and soccer.
But what I remember most is the love and compassion that I felt from Nan and Gramp. They loved their family and everyone else around them. They always sought to help those in need, never judging anyone and seeing in everyone their greatest potential.
I hope I grow up to be like them someday.
