Happy Birthday Grandpa
He would have been 90 years old today.
He was just a kid himself when he started what’s today a big organization that helps children all over the world. He was born with hemophilia and spent lots of time in the hospital. He knew there where other kids out there being sick just like him so he started to send them letters and gifts.
He died when my father was 7 years old, I never got to meet him, but he has always been a part of all of us and the organization is still doing wonderful things for so many people in our world ♥
