While I was not alive to meet my great grandfather, I have heard many stories of what an amazing person he was from my mother. She has told me how he enjoyed acting, and he worked as a food seller. In addition, I have heard several stories about him from my great grandma who is still alive to this day and what a generous and kind person he was. Even though I did not have the opportunity to meet him myself, throughout all the stories I’ve heard I have always wondered what it would have been like to get to know him. I have received permission from my grandma to use the photo of her with her father, my great grandfather.
