By the time his grandchildren came along he had mellowed and was always very patient with them. They would often follow him around the farm, trying to help with chores and learning lessons. Sometimes in the evenings he would lie down on the living room floor with them and make up stories about the farm animals, using the names of each grandchild for a different animal, to make them laugh. Cause of death was a heart attack.
