Sadly, Dad's been gone for 18 years and my last grandfather passed away last year and I'm only 29. I'll be raising a beer to their memory though.

- edw519 17y agoMe too. I'll join you. Here's to our fathers and grandfathers. And to their sons. I'm glad you brought up your grandfathers. Both of mine led very difficult lives and made great sacrifices so that their children and grandchildren could have a better chance than they did. Whenever I have doubts about my project (which isn't often), I remind myself that they came here so that I could do this. Kinda puts things in perspective.
- quickpost 17y agoRight there with you guys... I lost my Dad about three months ago... he was my best friend. I'm with you on the grandfathers too... It makes me proud to think of all the ancestry behind me - behind everyone really. All the people who have worked so hard to get us and the rest of humanity to this magical time. Sometimes when I'm feeling down, I watch this little clip on youtube - I don't have an ounce of Viking ancestry, but I like the message: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN-no1Ka7yU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN-no1Ka7yU Lo, there do I see my father. Lo, there do I see my mother. And my sister and my brother Lo, there do I see the line of my people Back to the beginning. Lo, they do call to me. They bid me take my place among them In the halls of Valhalla Where the brave may live forever.
