On our way up to Maryland, my mom called us with the news that my grandfather had passed away. His funeral was on Tuesday so we extended our trip to go. It was really neat to hear stories about my grandfather when he was younger. One of my favorites was when my great grandmother was about to give birth to my Great Aunt Mary. She was having problems and needed help. Living on a farm in western Maryland, it was winter and there was a blizzard out, my Great Grandfather had to put Poppy on the farm work horse to ride to the next farm to get help. And he did. He was 4 1/2 years old.
