If I can say anything about my grandpa it would be that he is the biggest survivor I know. He courageously fought the Second World War, to which he many unforgettable stories. My grandpa lived with cancer for countless years, somehow he always pulled through, until June 30 2012. My grandpa had an amazing sense of humour, that could put a smile on anyone's face. Grandpa, grandma is doing good she still loves to get out of house everyday and goes shopping with mom & my aunts & uncle. The Montreal Canadiens are doing great this year. You'd be proud.
