    H3O,

    You and your family are in my prayers this evening. I hope you will find some peace in the fact that you have his truck and it sounds like some mighty fine memories of him.

    Hang in there brother, the Lord has you covered.

    Painting his name on the glovebox door is a great idea, along with the name of the truck. A very nice way to honor your grandpa, indeed.

    Thoughts and prayers for you and yours...

    i saw my gramps three times while he was alive. he never drove a car. he was an immigrant from italy. what he left me was the memory of a strong silent man, secure in his world.

    that old f100 should go to your grandkid, just like you got it. from his gramps...

    I feel your pain and your loss. I was especially close to my own grandfather and followed him like a shadow from the time I could walk. The family says I am the most like him and I credit my mechanical skills to him. When he p***ed I bought his 8n Ford tractor from my grandmother and still own it 40 years later. I plow my driveway with it every winter and can't ride it without thinking of him.
    Be sure to treat you granps's old truck with respect and take care of it. It will last you a lifetime and be a constant reminder of the good times you had with him.

    Frank
