Grandpa and Judah

I emptied out my father's house in Florida, and as I did, I found pictures of Judah sitting on his bureau , in his kitchen,and living room. I found letters that Dad saved from Judah. They shared a raunchy sense of humor with references to fantasy lives. Dad always encouraged Judah in what ever he did.

I remember Dad's eulogy and the Danny Boy song to describe his loss of Judah. It's another era that has passed. But I feel that Judah is visiting with his grandfather and grandmother. He was the first grandchild and always held a special place because of it. He secured his place with his gentle soul and tender way with his grandparents.

Its been a long journey without my loves, but it is made easier by good friends and wonderful family.
