Blair was my pappy. I remember my pappy growing up as a stern but soft man. I remember his story telling and poems that he would recite and I would try to memorize them. I remember when pappy would come over to our house and sit outside with us in the summer. I would ride the bus after school to grammy and pappys house and they would fix me a snack, cheese, pretzels, peanut butter, mustard, a various assortment from the fridge and cabinets. I remember they would pick me up from school when I was very little. There are moments that I can feel Grammy and Pappy with me. i wish pappy could have seen me graduate college. He will forever be in my heart.
