Homegrown Grandpa the Great is one of those guys who pretty much knows a little bit (or a lot, in some cases) about EVERYTHING. Gardening question? You bet he knows it. Question on how to build your own heater from bricks you've gotten for free? Not only does he know it, but he can show you the plans to build it. Teach your kids how to say "holy smokes"? You betcha. Is he the family matriarch? You're darn right he is! Grandpa the great is just that GREAT He's a master gardener, Scrabble fanatic, and an excellent example of what a good husband, father, grandfather, and GREAT grandfather look like!!
As for Geo's other grandpa, singin' swingin' grandpa is the best. He's always got a story to tell or a song to sing-and sometimes it's BOTH of those. It's impossible to be cranky around Harvey; I wouldn't suggest trying either or you'll be serenaded :) His never ending faith in God is admirable, his devotion to his family is inspiring, and the smile on his face lights up any room. I have it on pretty good authority that his great grandchildren adore him, as do his grandchildren. We're so lucky to have Harvey in our lives!

A Scrabble-loving Grandpa...welcome in my house any time :)
Geo's grandpa would be a patriarch, not a matriarch ;) They both sound awesome, though.
Teresa-he is our self proclaimed matriarch :) Years ago he made a comment about being the matriarch and it's a running joke :P
