My grampa wez, he built his house, and owned his own modest construction company, collected vintage sports cars (jag- e type) and bikes, and had an avery full of song birds as well as a beautiful garden and some farm animals, geese, goat's and pigs.

He ate healthy, lived actively, had an unfettered love for my grandmother (she is a character too) wez died young, early 60s.
