Thanks for listening guys, and without further ado, let's begin.

I don't have the best memory of my childhood, not that my childhood was bad, it wasn't,

but I just don't remember that much of it compared to a lot of people.

My grandfather always stood out to me, which was strange I know, because he was never

really around very much.

A few times that he came around for Christmas or some other family occasion, he seemed

a kind but serious man.

I remember him talking to me and showing me coin tricks, and I liked the sound of his

deep rumbling voices.

He told me stories about far off lands and fantastic creatures.

I remembered liking him and feeling sorry for him because underneath it all, he seemed

very sad and tired.

I knew that my grandmother had died not long before I was born, so I always imagined that

was a lot of why he was sad.

I say all of this to explain that I had a limited but positive idea of my grandfather

before a few days ago.
