My inspiration to Work Hard!!! My Grandpa was a very serious man. He had some way above characteristics and being a human he also had flaws. I learned from him to save, be flexible to do whatever was needed to feed his family. Seeing how fate can quickly remove abilities of a younger man. Grandpap learned from being a farmer, to a carpenter, to a welder..... He worked at times 2-3 jobs along with the farm. Then as a young man unexpectedly his leg was cut-off. He never cried He adjusted and became a sales person for cemetery headstones. Grandma showed also her character by helping "Her man who was handicapped" as she would say in her phone approach. But He did this type of work with the same ethics and zeal as he did farming, carpentry, welding! He was very good at his new profession and worked it for nearly 40yrs. He was still the man to beat in his 70s. Every year he put in his garden and he would plow it up with a gas power Tiller. One year I watched him be pulled right out of his wooden leg. He held on without stopping with one leg and being drug until he finished that 30ft row. That was Grandpap. .
