In this episode I talk to Rob Bonham, who tells me the story of his grandfather, Robert, and the relationship they developed throughout his life. Robert helped fill the role that Rob’s dad was unable to fill anymore after his health started going downhill. He tells about the bond that grew between them, and then what it was like when his grandpa’s health started failing him. Something that made his passing easier for Rob was the fact that so many people seemed to respect Robert and honor him, which has inspired Rob to want to adopt that same humble lifestyle of respecting others.

“I remember the funeral and it being very somber, yet seeing my grandfather’s golf buddies and people he had worked with come out, and I had never met them before. I didn’t know who these people were, they didn’t owe anything to our family to be out there, but that was just the kind of guy my grandpa was. People like him. He was a very likeable guy and he left a good impact on people.” 21:00
