I miss my grandfather. He was always good to us grandkids. He would take me for rides in his coup car after he lost his hand and he did fine even shifting those gears and he was a great biscuit maker as he lived with us from time to time and he would hold the bowl with his stump and mix with his good hand. What a guy!
