Letters to our Grandchildren

 10-18-24 Hi kids, A few years ago there was a movie titled “The bucket list” where it featured a couple of friends who were old and in their final years.  They made a list of things they wanted to accomplish before they die. I would like you to make a list of things you want to accomplish in your young life and update it regularly.  Last year at age 70 I went to key west and got scuba certified.  I wanted to do it when uncle James was 12 or 13 but I never followed up on it.  We could have enjoyed it together for so many years.  Next I have to nudge him to get certified.   Cioci Jean had a good technique she and uncle Dave had where on new year day they would work on theirs.  A great time to set up your year.  Some goals on the list might be long term, like getting your black belt. Leni you just told me this week you wanted to live in Hawaii, and mentioned Maui. Very impressive goal for a 6 year old. Love you guys. Grampy

 Continued And Never  Ending Improvement 

 Hi kids, I started writing a new paper article in the Villager newspapers.  These are tips for parents on how to help their kids be awesome in life. Here is my latest article. https://linpub.blob.core.windows.net/pdf/2/3bf72696-76c1-41ee-be17-ebbeeae2ec23.pdf Hope these help you as kids and maybe someday as parents too. Love you so much. Grampy

 Dear Lily (G1) and Leni (G2), We love our family members. We have always enjoyed our whole family. Having you two first grandchildren has brought us all much joy.  Little did we know we would be lucky enough to get three more of you! Grampy
