<p>In a world of bad news and not enough emphasis on the good, I thought this was touching. I also liked some of the comments, especially the one about the vet. Having people care is always a heartwarming thing. </p>
<p>Yes, when my dad died 15 years ago, a man came to the wake and wanted to pay his respects. He knew my father many years prior when he was new to school as a young boy, and students weren’t being particularly friendly.

My children always try to make their grandpa proud doing kind things but we all need to be reminded of the impact.</p>
