The couple raised their own chickens and kept a cow for milk. Grandpa walked with a limp as the result of being kicked by a horse when he was young. Although most of these pictures don't show it, he always wore a hat when he went out and would hang it on the antlers of the stuffed deer head that hung in the kitchen.He was the best "grandpa" in the world and always kept a supply of peppermints in his coat pockets for all of his grandchildren.
