My grandfather passed away last week at the age of 92. I had mixed feelings about bloggin this but I decided I will. He was a great man and lived with my family for most of my childhood. He tought me a lot about life and respecting others and all of that has still stayed with me. He was a hands on type of person and always wanting to take things apart and fix them, I guess that's where i got that from. He would always help on the science projects, but sometimes common sense was not there...like making a steam boat that ran on gasoline. It was an awesome project and worked but of course I was sent straight to the principals office when i arrived to class with a jar of gasline and a lighter :) He always had the bags of chips for us. He played for the Ecuador National Team and he tought us all the soccer skills we needed and it paid off by winning four consecutive championships (when we where around 10 years old :). Even after we stopped playing he would still go out to the fields to teach the young kids some skills. Anyway, he lived a long happy life and he will be missed by all of my family and his friends. Rest in peace “Papa Tarquino”
