Veteran Grandpa

At our Thanksweenie celebration last weekend, my mom and aunts were telling the funniest little stories about my grandpa in his final years. Like how much he loved Judge Judy, which I never knew. He served in WWII, had lots of schrapnel scars, and although they always had a pool, I never saw him in it. I always heard that he never liked the water because of his time in the war. I'm not sure what happened. I should have posted this on Veteran's Day. I feel so much empathy for veterans and the sacrifices they make and their families make. My grandparents were such sweethearts.
