Proverbs specifically comments about the grandfather, father, and son connection. In todays world, too many sons don’t really know their father, much less their father’s father. I was blessed as well and was able to spend a lot of time growing up with my dad’s father.

[higgmeister]

My father’s father was born in 1870.   He passed away in 1946, eight years and twenty days before I was born.

But I was born exactly one hundred years after Vincent van Gogh.   'So I've got that goin for me, which is nice."
