idk why but i heard this song so many times in the month when my grampi was in the hospital dying... when do i stop crying for missing him so much? and then vittorio was so kind chatting with me when i was keeping my granddad company while he was sleeping, and now vittorio is gone too 💔 https://open.spotify.com/track/6PmvNS601Mcd2H0UcqMWb0
and i was shopping for Christmas gifts w my dad this morning and he chose to drive the back way on the road named after our family and it's like... grampi had his name on so many assets, so many awards & commendations for his work, but i feel like the name isn't what matters, it's the memories of him being so kind and thoughtful and funny with his puns and poems and being there for all of us grandkids and great grandkids- making the time, always patient; plus putting so much effort into planning his estate and the family partnerships and such so we're all provided for, and yet never using it to coerce or control us at all- just love and support
