    That’s very kind and heartwarming to hear. Thankfully, my mother and other relatives are quite the archivists. There is no end to the pictures, scrapbooking, and a few series of videos about “adventures with GG.” What she does try to get across, we listen. I’ll hold onto what memories I can, as I have with my long-gone grandfather. Bit of a scoundrel and card shark, from what I’ve learned and remember. Had a regular game a couple nights a week (one of my uncles was an easy mark). Late dinners of excellent Filipino food GG prepared. Thank you for bringing up those memories.
