Memories of Grandpas

One of Ted Kennedy’s grandchildren (video is dark so I don’t know her name) said that she loved visiting him at Hyannis and waking up early in the morning and going out on the porch to find him there, starring out at the sea. She said she’d sit with him and they would “talk and talk and talk.”
What a wonderful memory. I never met my mother’s father and though I spent considerable time with him — he died when I was in my late teens — I don’t remember my father’s father saying one word to me.
