so i found out today that my grandpa was convicted of murder in first degree in 1933 of a 26 year old man.

He stood trial where he was found guilty and faced the death penalty by hanging ...

the governor spared him and sentenced him to prison instead ..

he served about 16 years then was released i shit you not for good behavior...

after his release he settled down with a woman and had about 7 kids..

one of which was my Father...

who 30 years later would have me..

crazy to think i wouldn't be here today if not for the mercy of my fellow man..

but i can't help but feel guilty for the dude my grandpa killed..

he was just 26 and my grandpa lived to be about 60 until he fell off a ladder

and smacked his head against the house while picking his fig tree.

i loved my grandpa but i wish i could undo what he did ...

i hope the soul he took as well as his own is at peace ..
