My Grandfather's influence on me..

Dear Alex
While praying the Rosary today I had this awesome thought.
I think I may have said something of this before.
My Grandfather and your Great Grandfather was Clement Samuel Horn.
Nell's father.
I remember him as a very sweet, funny and Godly man.
As he lay in his bed in our home, Jeffries House, Jeffries Lane. Goring by sea, Sussex, maybe you might get a chance to visit it, it is a national monument and close to where you might all be for Christmas, writing his memoirs, and I would sure love to get a hold of them, I would often find him underlying in a red ink pen his leather bound King James Bible, which out of all his grandchildren, 9 in all, he left to me..
Sadly I did not treasure it and I have no idea where it is now. Maybe Nick has it????
I was upstairs in bed with the flu when he died and as the undertakers carted him off they asked my mum rather ghoulishly if they might soon be required again for me. Ha!
Anyway I was thinking about him and I realised what a work of complete grace that God would influence him to influence us as a continued work of Grace in our family. I am sure he is praying for us just as we are praying for him.. I sometimes remember to pray for my ancestors...Anyway all that to say that we have three adult Roman Catholics in our family, not counting the children and it gives me such a sense of security to realise that Our Holy Mother has got them and all of us continually in her sites.
As far as I know nothing serious like a death or accident has happened to any of them... Correct me if I am wrong... as you will know better than me..
The Rosary Prayer is such an awesome prayer and has great power!!!
A very Happy New Year
