Grandpa Hank
One Dapper Young Man.
That's my granddad. Henry H Heeres, born 12 May 1919. We visited with him just before Christmas, with his "new" wife Kathryn. They've been married now just over 6 years, ages-old friends who lost their spouses to time and decided to grow old together. He'll be 89 in May.
I found this picture up on the shelf in the dining room next to all the photos of kids and grandkids and Great grand kids...
He's now in the hospital. He went in to the doc on Wednesday with a sore heart. The doc admitted him and said it's a mild case of congestive heart failure and pneumonia. "Mild failure"? I don't get it. They've got him under observation and have been running lots of tests to try to figure out how to get his heart running on all cylinders again.
I'm proud of my granddad.
