Monumental Weekend...

What a weekend... My grandfather is a POW from WWII and this weekend his hard work and determination was seen by all. He had a POW monument put up at the VA hospital in Fresno, CA and wow was it beautiful. He was a little emotional about it and was exhausted after the fact. But what can you expect he is 87 and still acts like hes in his 60's. He truly is a great man who has seen a lot and done a lot. This monument that he had built not only represents all those who are POW MIAs but this will be his physical monument for ever. I am so lucky to have a grandfather as great as him. There was about 50 of us (meaning friends and family) at the ceremony which I know made papa very happy. Later that day we all joined together and had a celebration for papa and his monument but also him being 87 this month along with the other April birthdays including mine and my daughters. It was so great to be able to be around family. It was truly a great day!
