Markdown:This month my Grandpa Stafford would’ve turned 95 years old. He was such a strong and wonderful man. I miss him being here physically because that means no more long talks on the veranda or nights under the stars discussing everything under the stars but his ethereal presence is hard to deny. I always took comfort knowing that when I wasn’t in Jamaica I was always included in his daily morning and evening prayers and now that he’s gone I know that his blessings continue.P.O.
