In 1927,Thomas Madewell was born. He lived in Gilmer,Texas. He met my Great-grandma at the old Dairy Queen in 1939. Now,I will tell you the story that was sad,brave,but happy.

Every year I got to see my Great-grandpa.He would make me laugh by telling a story called Once Lived a boy Named Jeffer. He would also tell me what I would probably become when I get older,like for example,a Nascar driver (hopefully not). Great-grandpa would give me spectacular guitar lessons. He could play a guitar really good, I mean have you ever listened to him play?

During Summer we went to the hospital. It was Great-grandpa’s last day. I cried for hours and prayed with him,after we were done praying he gave me his guitar. I knew he was brave. I love my Great-grandpa,he is my hero because he made me laugh by circus peanuts and made my life so much easier. I know I will see my hero in Heaven. I figured that you can change who you are in the inside but not on the outside. I know my hero. “For God so loved the World that He gave His one and only Son so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life,” John 3:16.
