A Great Man Passed Away Today

For those of you that send out prayers; My Grandfather could use some today. He passed at 9:30 this morning. One of the greatest men to walk this earth as far as I'm concerned. He got in on the end of World War II then came back and married my Grandmother (his high school sweetheart) and opened an automotive shop in my hometown in 1946. He ran this shop until he began to loose his memory in 2008, he was 81 years old when he layed down his wrench and hammer and had to go into the memory care unit.

He was a preacher for over 20 years so I'm sure he would enjoy the prayers. He taught me nearly everything I know. I've included a picture of how I will remember him. He was amazing with a hammer, torch and welder.
