Since this was so vague, let me add my 2 cents. Edwin my was grandfather, for many years he was my father figure. He taught me about the importance of family, the meaning of a hard day's work, and that honesty was always the best policy. He taught me how to fish, how to shoot, and my love of motorcycles comes from him too. He taught me to drive when I was 12 and let me drive his old truck around the sub division where we lived. He bought me my first dirt bike, and eventually helped me get a car when the the time was right. He has been the Patriarch of our family. He has buried his son, and one of his daughters before his time came and he remained strong through it all. He has molded me into the man I am today. From my first beer to my first job and he oversaw it all. Work always came before play and every day had a morning chore routine before any fishing or motorcycling could happen. He was best best friend growing up and I only hope my legacy leaves me half the man he was. His blood runs in my veins and his legacy will be carried on through me. I love you Grandpa forevermore.. This ain't the last goodbye
