Thread: Important Departed People...Share your Stories!

I don't know if this has been done before here, but I was thinking about one of my departed grandfathers recently and thought it would be great to have a thread where we could tell stories about important people/loved ones in our lives that have died and why they meant so much to us; or, special things that they had done while alive, etc.

I'll compose mine soon, but if anyone has anything to share now, please do.

Rule of the post: It has to be someone you knew personally.
