THE FOLLOWING ARE MEMORIES OF GRANDSON SCOTT ROSE.
"I wanna go see the house they lived in for over 25 years that harbors so many wonderful memories growing up. Christmas, Thanksgiving and summers as well as long weekends were spent there helping Granny in the kitchen and mowing their HUGE yard for Grandpa. I could mow their lawn in 2 hours that took them all day. Grandpa LOVED it when I did their yard. He would sit on the porch and watch me.
'Go get some water Scotty', is what he would yell to me when I would pass by with the mower. I remember one year they had bought 3 cords of wood. I chopped all three cords in a day and both of them couldn't believe it. I remember Grandpa came up to me and said 'Scotty we don't have to do all of it today.' I smiled and kept on swinging the axe. I know he appreciated so much what I did, but it was hard for him to voice those words out loud. I remember one year to show me how much he appreciated what I had done for him and Granny he went to Sears and bought me a lawn mower, a power one!! His reasoning was that I could take it home and make money by going around my neighborhood and cutting other people's yards. That was the first time he EVER gave me a gift. let alone a one-on-one type of acknowledgment. I could write so much about all the fun times we used to have doing yard work, working on his truck, going and picking berries by the creek, raking leaves, cutting wood, helping them fix things, etc etc. I contribute a lot of my being to them. Neither one of them ever spoke of wishing they had things. They were so grateful and happy for the things they did have, they never complained. I learned a lot from them. I love and miss them every day."
