By ELAINET9WNSHEND
A chapter of hiatOry,iiQ, our
family,closed last month
when my grandfather died at
the age of 87, He used to
entertain us with stories
about a by-gone era.
One of the stories took
place when he was 13. He and
his eight-year-old brother
drove cattle for Miles from
one farm to another over a
hilly winding stretch of road.
Before the days of truck
transport, it was a job
neither boys forgot, -
Be recalled the family
moved with trepidation into
a lowly-looking house, but as
fate often,prescribes, it was
the home that contained the
best memories for him.
Grandpa often reminisced
about working for relatives
for a few months in the fertile
Qtie Appelle Valley in
Saskatchewan before he was
married. He liked it well
enough to stay, but for some
reason, he ended up back in
Ontario. On one of the train
trips between Ontario and
Saskatchewan, he said he
had only enough money to
buy a bunch of ba na nas to eat.
Even after 60 years of
marriage, my grandparents
were still kidding each other
about who proposed to
whom. On their first date,
they went to hear bell
ringers. "Courting" has
changed in many ways, but
some things stay the same.
In my grandparents' day,
the vehicle was horse and
buggy, but the custom was
familiar - driving up and
down main street on a
Friday or Saturday night.
After their wedding, they
were driven around town in a'
wagon much to their chagrin
and Grandma's sisters
prepared the wedding din-
ner,
In the first 50 years of
marriage, they moved nine
times. Although they stayed,
within the same township
and moved only a few miles
each time,- the work was
heavy. There were no
movers, van lines or
welcome wagons.
Threshing crews, filled
Grandma's kitchen every
year at harvest time. I
remember hearing about a
house with a large balcony
on which the hired men slept
in good weather, Grandma
recalled one man was so tall
that his feet stuck out bet-
ween the railing.
Grandpa called himself a
gypsy and always grinned
when he said it. I took a long
time to figure out what he
meant. He bought and sold
property. livestock,
machinery, equipment and
anything else you can name.
Sometimes he travelled to
five or six sales in a week. He
transported other farmers'
cattle and bought and sold
in livestock for the as well,
Many Dutch immigrant
farmers dealt with him When
they moved to the area. Be
didn't understand their
language and most of them
didn't understand his, but he
knew what they needed to
start farming in' Canada.
With a smattering of English
and a fliirry- • ,of sign
language, they carried-out
transactions.
In the last few years of his
life, a heart condition
restricted his activities - a
hard thing to tolerate for a
man accustomed to being so
active. A visit from family or
friends, though, was sure to
bring a grin and a story of
the old days,
But his most difficult trial
was yet to, come. Eighteen
months ago a stroke plunged
him into a world of silence.
No one expected him to live
through the first night, but as
usual, Grandpa surprised
everyone. The next 17
months were spent in
hospital chronic care wards.
Anyone who has had a
relative or friend in chronic
care knows it is an ex-
perience one doesn't forget.
It gives us a whole new
perspective on life. It
reminds us how fragile life is
and that We are not in charge
of our destinies, even though
we like to think we are.
Although Grandpa
couldn't speak, the old
familiar glint, in his usually
flashed" when visitors
arrived. It was his Way, of
showing us he knew we were
there, and it is one of things
we will • most remember
about him.
