I was fifteen. He was kind, strong, fair, and very funny. When I was a young musician, he was my biggest fan. I played my violin for him when he visited, and he loved everything, but each time he had one request. “Could you play Amazing Grace？” he asked, full of hope and with a twinkle in his eye, because he knew my answer was always, “I dont know that one！” We went throughP1 this routineW1 at every major holiday, and I always figuredW2 Id have time to learn it for him later. About the time I entered high school and started guitar, Grandpa got cancer. The last timeP2 I saw him aliveW3 was Thanksgiving weekend in 1985. My mom warned us that Grandpa didnt look the same anymore and that we should prepare ourselves.S For a moment I didnt recognizeW4 him. He looked so small among all the white sheets. We had all gathered in Ohio for the holiday, and Im sure we all knew we were there to say goodbye. I can see now that Grandpa held onP3 long enough to see us each one more time. I remember how we ate in the dining room and laughed and talked while Grandpa rested in his hospital bed. I wonder if it was sad for him to be alone with our voices and laughter. Knowing_Grandpa,_he_was_probably_content. The next morning I found my moment alone with him. I pulled outP4 my guitar, tuned to his appreciative gaze, and finally played for him “Amazing Grace.” I had worked on it for weeks, knowing it never mattered whether I actually played it well and choosing not to believe as I played that it was my last concert for my biggest fan. The cancer had stolen his smile, but I saw joy in his eyes. He held my hand afterward, and I knew I had done something important. I arguedW5 with people all through college about my music major. I was told by strangers that music wouldnt make me any money and it wasnt useful like being a doctor.
