Papa

George grew up in a strange time in American society. To put it into perspective, when he was 16 he could buy beer from and store that sold it. He, like my mother and Robert, has suffered a harsh life. The one difference however, is that he can be considered quite “successful” and from what I have heard, he was a very happy man in everything he did from a child up till now. How he was able to stay happy, I don't know. If my father died when I was 11, and I  no matter how hard I tried could not read, I would be a most unhappy person. This man taught me about happiness and hardwork through example. Oh, and did I mention that he is my grandfather?
