Ralph Lee Blankenship
I'm standing here to not only talk about my grandfather, but to talk about a man who was a father, husband, and a child of God. He lived a wonderful life . He was a good father, and a grandfather. He was a hard worker and a loving person. I am so thankful for having a family who accepted me and to have grandparents who Loves me. Pa used to let us grandchildrenchildre him out when he was working . We would pick berries, mow grass, and Harvest food. Psalm 23:4 says ''Eventhough though I walk the darkest valley, I will have no fear no evil for you are with me; your rod and staff, they comfort me; '' This Psalm speaks about Jesus being with us through every part of our lifes. When I think about this Psalm I think about the man who was my grandfather, your father, your husband and I think about he has been with us through all parts of our lives and he has also comforthe us. Thank You!.
