My grand dad would sit in his room and listen to the Orioles.
i would sit with him. we would not talk much, just be. Like most of us i was too young and full of myself to ask any of the questions i now have for all who have passed.
Boy, do I have those regrets too.......so sad.
Especially about my grandfather, who my uncle's ex-wife gathered history about him and his side of the family......WW-1 in France, college degree in pharmacy, lost his business in Calif during the depression, moved back to Michigan.....etc.
