It was a good feeling to know that you, my inigmatic and quiet Grandpa, loved me. Now in adulthood I have nothing but respect for people from all of my Grandparents' generation for their love of the simple life and their perserverance through incredible obstacles, hardships, depressions, wars, recessions, relocating their families time and time again simply just to find work... and so much and many more journies, that they went through while still enjoying life and family along the way - endeavours that my peers would consider an insult to their lifestyle if they had to undertake them. It is a shame that our elders' voices and advice is often unheard at this stage of our evolution, becuase once their voices are silenced, that book in history is closed. For that reason I feel that William's life was incredible, important and strong and he should be remembered as such because that's exactly what he is. I am honoured to have been a part of his life, to have his name and to have been considered and cared for by him.
