I love that you go to SC to help Jane Jane! I can’t believe Papa Bill is 86. I watch The Stew Crew video earlier and Papa Bill told Carlin that he was 86 and blessed to be that old. ❤ Your family are so sweet ❤

Love that you go help both your grandparents! I just lost my dad about a month ago and my son stayed there nightly to take care of his grandpa. Then he would go to work and come back and do whatever was needed. My dad waited for my son and my brother to be there before he closed his eyes and passed away. My son wrote the sweetest thing for his funeral about his memories with his grandpa and how grandpa was his best friend. Trace you remind me so much of my son. Please keep doing what you’ve been doing for both your grandparents.
