My grandfather would have been 103 years old if he was still alive today.  He passed about 10 years ago and I still honor him on his birthday.  My grandfather lost his mother when he was 17 years old, (after child birth) and every year on his mothers birthday he would take a flower from his garden and place it next to her photo.  As his birthday is in April, I can't do that but every summer I plant some flowers in his name.

My dear mom had a young man make this stained glass for the chapel in the woods in Door County where she used to own property.  My grandfather loved the log chapel.
