My grandfather did a lot of things in his life. What he was most proud of was raising his family.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My grandfather went through a lot in his life.
My grandfather had a particularly important influence on my life, even though I didn't visit him often, since he lived about three miles out of town and he died when I was six. He was remarkably curious about the world, and he read lots of books.
I do everything I do to pay tribute to my great-grandfather.
My father was raised with brothers, he was a football player and a boxer, he was a chief petty officer in the Navy, he was a man of his times.
Everything I do in my life I do to make my mum and dad proud. I want to carry on in my dad's footsteps and make sure that his legacy lives on forever.
My parents did a great job raising me and my two sisters. We all graduated from high school and we all graduated from college. So, to be a good representative of my family is probably my greatest accomplishment thus far.
My grandfather was smart and had a whole lot of pride. He didn't speak a terrible amount, but you could tell there was a ton on his mind - like a quiet acceptance of how life had turned out.
I was fortunate to be raised by loving grandparents.
I wanted to share my life story and honor my roots. I am very proud of my family and mother.
My grandmother impressed upon me the importance of family, and my grandfather encouraged my hunger for learning.
