That Rollei will always be yours, in your granddaughter's mind. It's meant in a respectful and fond way, as I have an oak secretary that once belonged to my great-grandfather, that I think of as "Grampa Hindal's oak secretary." He's been dead long since before I was born, and I'm 57. I never knew him, yet, there's that kinship.
I think you have a wonderful grandfather-granddaughter relationship. Congratulations!
Wow, I hadn't thought of it like that Susan. It's comforting to think that something like that could keep someone in their thoughts long after we're gone.
