“This is my granddad, Lee. I am entering this photo into the mobile category under the title “My ‘Spec-tacular’ Granddad.” My granddad is 77 years-old, and the absolute kindest person I know. He is a retired school bus driver, and avid YMCA attendee. He and my Nana have been married for over 40 years, and have raised 8 children and many of their grandchildren. After 3 bouts of cancers of differing kinds, 2 knee replacement and 1 hip replacement surgeries, I am completely convinced that he is a superhero. His love for his family and his love for God emanate from him in a tangible way. His positivity and laughter are contagious. He is the most beloved granddad in the world!”
