Ol' Poppie used to say, "it's rainin' pitch forks and n***** babies!"
He also used to tell me to stick the blade of my pocket knife into the ground before cutting any food with it - because the dirt would sterilize the blade.
My other grandfather would say, "A place for everything and everything in its place".
Both of them loved Jesus and followed Him until the day they died. I expect it will be a great joy when I get to worship with them around the throne of the Savior. I hope I have sons and grandsons with me there and then, too.
What from Christ that soul can sever, Bound by everlasting bands? None shall take thee From the Strength of Israel's hands.

I once hired an old man who I learned to love like he was my Grandpa. Harry came up with several sayings in the several years we wored together. The one that I remember best & I still use is "To each his own said the old woman as she kissed the cow."

Tighter than a bulls butt at fly time Put a little fur around it. About a large woman: If she was hauling (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) she would have to make 2 trips. & when he saw a woman on a bicycle he would say "She is peddling (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)"

Pop - "She had a face that would stop a nine day clock" (no idea what a nine day clock is)\ "If it ain't broke, don't go trying to fix it!"
MomMom - Jurtle it! (when something was stuck like a door, or the faucet leaked,( figured it was jiggle, turn, twist, wiggle all in one)
Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure
