I was incredibly sad to lose my grandfather at Christmas time, but also very happy to celebrate a life well lived. For various reasons, we were not especially close, but I loved and respected him for the man he was.
I found out a little over a week ago that he left me some money in his will. I was not in any way expecting this, and am incredibly humbled and honoured. Thanks to his gift, this will soon be ours (well, the bank's for the first 25 years)!
