"Grandpa" Willy


Your grandfather Willy was someone Uncle Biff and I looked up to as kids. We always tried our best to make Willy proud. Doing our best to get good grade and then go out and make something of our lives. Biff was into football and trying to make something of it. Grandpa was very supportive of Uncle Biff for this. I went on and started to make money. Although later on Biff and I both moved back with grandma and grandpa because they need some help.  Sadly, this is when I noticed the difference in how grandpa acted towards us all.  Grandpa Willy was an excellent salesman, although as he got older he struggled to do his best. He hated to struggle so he would continue to make long trips. He always wanted to provide for us the best that he could. He was such a driven man. Always going after what he wanted. That is one of the main traits that stuck out to me when thinking about Grandpa Willy. I hope that I can show you, my children, that characteristic like my father did to me. I think it is very important to have and helps you go far in life.
I know if grandpa was still here with us today he would want the best for you guys. He would love to see you succeed just like he did for Biff and I. Just remember he is still with us and is looking down on all of us. So let’s make him proud.
