My mother's father died on June 27th, 2005. Roughly 1 hour and 45 minutes before his 96th birthday. The last time I saw him alive was his 95th birthday. That's what this LJ tells me if I check the tags, but I can only remember anything as recent as his 94th birthday.

The last time should have been the 2005 Battle of Lewisburg Living History and Reenactment that was held in his honor but that ended up being the same weekend I was put into Crossroads for the first time.
Right now I just wanted to repost the tributes.

Where I'm from, the elderly are put into homes when they become no longer "convenient". Not to mention, family history is lost in the hustle and bustle of trying to make a buck.
I'm doing great on my travels. Today's post is a bit longwinded so bear with me.
