Life is full of momentous occasions some good and some bad.

These are the moments that can define us, but along with the personal satisfaction comes the feeling of gratitude for those who were there cheering us on during every step of the way. Life is not about personal achievement, but rather sharing experiences with others to grow and unite is one to achieve the unexpected. There is no replacing the value of having a support system to serve as a backbone when life gets hard and even seems impossible. For me, it has always been having someone to support me and encourage me to put forth my best effort. In my life one specific person sticks out.I remember him being there every concert, ceremony, sporting event, and family gathering. I remember the ornaments he had each Christmas for all of my friends and family.

I remember the rainy cross country meets when he was there still supporting me and the days he would get to a parade 3 hours early to save us seats.

I remember him giving me access to his record collection and sharing his life stories by the pool throughout the summers of my childhood. Throughout it all, he has encourage me to put forth my best effort and guided me to become the person I am today. I am proud to know him and I’m even more proud to call him grandpa. My grandfather John and he served in the armed forces during the Vietnam War and was stationed in Germany. Though he served many years before my birth I am grateful for the sacrifices he made so I could enjoy the life I live today. There is never a dull moment when he’s around.

I remember countless family gatherings with him that were filled with laughter and joy as he shared his stories and jokes. He never ceases to put a smile on my face and for that I will forever be grateful. At any event, he has always been in the crowd and I would always know that I was not alone. He always spends his free time helping others with projects. My grandpa is a veteran and I’m proud to be able to call myself his granddaughter and honor him. He is taught me how to become a contributing member of society and though he doesn’t realize it, I have come to learn what it means to be kind and compassionate to others and how small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
