The Love of Grandparents - Lasts a Lifetime

[CT Pirate]

A life story. As a retired ad guy, I write to keep my brain active, beyond reading Pirate Crew. An essay I wrote for the Boston Globe that weaves together my Grampy, pie and me as Grampy. It reflects on how much impact grandparents make on you when you look back. I bet many here are grandfathers and have your own traditions. Mine was about sharing pie with my Grampy. What is you favorite pie? Thought you all might enjoy the diversion from politics, wars and vitriol with a human interest piece. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/slice-pie-life-legacy-grampys-bill-field-f45rf/

Totally agree.I traveled all over the US with my mother and grandfather when I was 7 and worked stocking shelves with grandfather into my teens and will always have those memories.
