Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good ole days.
Sometimes it feels like
This world's gone crazy.
Grandpa, take me back to yesterday,
Where the line between right and wrong
Didn't seem so hazy.
Did lovers really fall in love to stay?
Stand beside each other come what may?
Was a promise really something people kept,
Not just something they would say?
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Whoa oh Grandpa,
Tell me 'bout the good ole days.
Grandpa, everything is changing fast.
We call it progress,
But I just don't know.
And Grandpa, let's wonder back into the past,
And paint me a picture of long, long ago.
Did lovers really fall in love to stay?
Stand beside each other come what may?
Was a promise really something people kept,
Not just something they would say (and then forget)?
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Whoa oh Grandpa,
Tell me 'bout the good ole days.
Whoa oh Grandpa,
Tell me 'bout the good ole days.
What a great man...when he wasn't cracking your knuckles or kickin' your pants.
We will miss you, Grandpa Sam. Your wonderful legacy will go on in the many many many golfers, Louis L'Amore fans, and Dr. Pepper addicts you have left behind....not to mention the 22 Sams and Reys that now carry your name.
Love, your Quince'

i tried to do my "Love S" post before the cousin time, but the pics i have scanned of Grandpa Sam aren't the right format and i am not smart enough to reformat them. soooo YOU WIN!!
you DID forget to mention that Grandpa was a perfect example of how ALL men should love and care for their wives. seriously he had the corner of the market on that one, YO!
i had the same problem with all of my digital grandpa pics, which is why the post is photo-les. I should try scanning actual pics from my photo albums and see if that works.
I miss grandpa.
aww Scotty...i miss him too. this is a hard time of year to lose someone who REALLY made this time of year what it is. Christmas IS Grandpa Sam and Mima...i think we made it Christmas for them too...why else would they spend EVERY year with us?
we are sooo totally their favorites.
meg..in my opinion Grandpa stopped counting at 15...yep Quince!
