Happy Birthday Grandpa, Oliver

Grandpa & Grandma
My grandpa and his siblings


Today, my grandpa would have been 101! He lived a long and beautiful life. He was known for many things but the two things I will always remember were his beautiful orichids (see below) and his love for dancing. Yes, even in his 90's this man was a dancing machine!

This song always reminds me of my grandpa! He loved this song so much! Towards the end of his life, my mom would visit with him and place an ipod in his ears so he could hear this song. He would always show a peaceful smile. He lived his life just like the song says "MY WAY"! That's a great life motto!
