Grandaddy was a twin, born to a large Irish family. He and his brother, Frank, were very close. They loved to tease and tell jokes. They also loved to tell very funny tall tales! Grandaddy was my introduction to all that is Irish and on this St. Pat's Day I stop and remember how much I love and miss him.
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
May the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
