Grandpa said five words on his last day.
Our dad sat beside his father's bed in his final days, unsure if his dad even knew what was coming. He worked up the courage and asked, gently, "Dad — do you know that you're dying?"
Grandpa turned. Calm. Certain. Fearless. And he said —
That was the whole answer. He wasn't afraid because he wasn't ending. Everything he'd built — with his family, with his faith, with the people he'd loved — none of it was ending either. It was continuing. Forever.
Our family hasn't been the same since. And now, one necklace at a time, we're passing it on.
