My grandfather’s favorite subject was history. He could talk for hours about almost any historical event, and he remembered dates like some kind of history wizard. Every time I would see him he would always ask me, “So, what are they teaching you in history class these days?” These kinds of conversations often occurred with matching cones of pistachio ice cream.
He was such a special man. And the older I get the more I realize what he was really trying to teach me. There is much to be learned from studying and examining the past.
His love for history will be passed on as I will make sure my children understand the importance of learning from the past.

Your pistachio eating grandpa was a wise man!
