Grandpa Elof

Today my grandpa passed away. He'd been sick for a long time but seemed to get better but this morning he had another heart attack and his fragile body couldn't handle it anymore. Just wanted to share a few of my fondest memories of him.
I always had a great time in the country house and when we used to watch TV at night grandma and grandpa always fell asleep sitting up snoring loudly, but when asked are you sleepy you'd always get the same answer 'oh no I'm not tired'. and when I fell asleep I can remember the feeling of grandpa carrying me up the stairs and into bed.
I remember when I tried to dig up the potatoes and hopped on the spade in order to get it into the ground and puling them out. He always said I was so strong and marveled at how much I could eat, but nobody could eat before the 'master' had come to the table- haha!!
I also had a hard time understanding my tall grandpa, he could sit on the sofa combing his soft, semi-long brown hair talking very enthusiastically and I would just nod and laugh when he did (he had a loud hearty laugh) but really I hadn't a clue as to what he had said!

This is the grandpa I remember and will miss! Love you.
