A Young Mans Admiration

My grandfather is a very wise and interesting man. His name is Tom Angel. My grandpa has a medium build. He is about 6’0 feet tall and weighs 180 pounds. He has a baldhead and blue eyes. He was born in Crown City, Ohio way up on top of a big hill. Grandpa will be celebrating his birthday Saturday September seventh, and he will be sixty-three years old. That really does not matter to him. He said that it was “just another day”.

Grandpa ran heavy equipment his entire life. He finally decided to retire last year. I was glad to see him finally decide to take a break from working. Even though he did retire, he still works everyday. He is always into something, whether it is working in hay or tobacco or just fooling around with the cows. His dad always taught him to be a hard worker. So far, he is teaching me the same thing. I try to get him to take a break sometimes, but he just says, “when a man quits working he will more than likely die”.

Back in his younger day’s I guess that he was a little bit wilder than what he is now. He used to drink a lot. Now though he has straightened up a lot, and goes to church every Wednesday and Sunday. He is all the time trying to make sure that I

 
 

All of this goes back to a tradition that he is determine to see live on forever in his family. Only he knows the whole and real truth about why it means so much to him. Hopefully one day before his passing, he will sit us down and tell us all, the whole story of his wonderful life.

at I am behaving myself. I am his only grandson, so he tries to keep a good-eye out on me. He tells me that I am young, and he understands how young men are. He is trying to do what is best for me.

Now why is it that I admire a man that has struggled so much along life’s way? One reason would be his ability to take an obstacle and turn it into just a leaning post along his way. Where most would just give up and accept the hand that was dealt to them, not grandpa, he has always felt there is a way to make everything better. One way or another he would and still pushes on until he finds the way to make the changes. I guess that is the one thing he has bestowed deep down inside me, and for that I will always be grateful. Even after 9-11, when everyone was looking for answers. All he would say, is this is something none will ever know the answer, why. But remember one thing the guilty will pay, be sure
