My grandpa passed away tonight. He went quietly, peacefully and without pain. I’m sad, and I will miss him.
I’d love to tell you all about him but, thankfully, I can let him tell the story. Trust me when I say he could spin a yarn like nobody else on earth. I’m happy to have heard so many.
A few years ago, I told him I wanted to record some of his stories. He assured me that he just wouldn’t know what to say. I got him into the booth, tested the mic a bit, then started rolling. Without a single prompting from me, he told story after story for a little over two hours. It was magical for me.
Here’s what came of it.
I recently listened to his story as recorded by you. I find it a walk through history on a personal level.
