Short Memory of Grandpa by Lynda Paxman

Grandpa died before I was very big but I had a great love for him.  He used to put me on his leg and take me for horsey rides and I just remember the  security I felt when I was with him and my great love for my grandpa.  Mom (Verna) told me later that he said very long prayers at dinner time and one time I ask if I could say the prayer and he said sure.  I replied:  "I say it short".  She said it was indeed, very short.  I was probably starving by then anyway.  (Written by Lynda Paxman September 13, 2014)
