the men on his side
you have your great grandfather’s iron will.
you have your grandfather’s focus.
you have your father’s sensitivity.
****
you have your great grandfather’s first name.
you have your grandfather’s patience.
you have your father’s strength.
****
curious. quiet. wise.
intricate. tinkerer. adaptable.
handsome. tough. sweet.
capable. stubborn. willing.
****
you have your great grandfather’s stories to learn… from your grandfather… from your daddy.
you will know them all. you will love them all.
and one day you too will pass them on.
****
rest in peace, grandpa jack.










I am sorry for your loss.
Sweet post. Jackson’s a lucky little man to have such big men to live up to!
