"I cannot say, and I will not say That he is dead. He is just away. With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, He had wandered into an unknown land And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be since he lingers there. And you, oh you, who the wildest yearn For an old-time step, and the glad return, Think of him faring on, as dear, In the love of There as the love of here. Think of him still as the same, I say. He is not dead - he is just away." ~ James Whitcomb Reilly I am so blessed to have had such a wonderful grandfather in my life. I miss him. I will always be grateful for his influence in my life. My life has been better and more full for having him in it.
