Grandpa Bunker

On Father's Day this year I spent the afternoon with the Bunker clan including my Grandpa Bunker who is my only living Grandparent. He is suffering from dementia and has forgotten who everyone is. It has been hard to watch someone go from riding motorcycles and having an extremely sharp mind to losing all concept of time, people, places, etc. in a matter of a few short years. I just wanted to say thanks to my grandpa for all of the traditions that were kept alive in his home every year for me to enjoy as a child and as an adult watching my children enjoy those same traditions. He is now living in a care center so the traditions will not be the same. Thank you Grandpa for your love and support through the years- I love you!
