My grampa died when I was five years old so I didn't get to know him much. My only memory is his firefighting hat that had a golden eagles head coming off the front of it. As my mom describes it I was very obsessed with it. Whenever we visited I always asked to see it. My grampa was the South Chicago Hts Fire Departments lieutenant and since I had very little memory of him I wanted to visit this place someday. That day finally came last year when we decided to take my three boys to go his fire station. What an experience that was!! The staff showed us all around the station, let us try on their gear, and sit in the fire trucks. Firefighters are compassionate people with an altruistic character. I am proud to know my grampa was like these amazing people of society.
As we left I said a little goodbye in my head to grampa Schwinn. At five you don't really understand death, so saying goodbye was not something you thought of. It brought a sense of joy to get to know him better and to have my sons understand that family is forever, even after they are gone.
