On June 6, my grandpa, Bill Foley, would have turned 100 years old.
A World War II veteran, Grandpa Bill passed away at the age of 89 on Feb. 12, 2015. As I searched for a photo to mark his birthday, I came across the eulogy I wrote for him in the days after his death.
So, in honor of 100th, I thought I would share this with you so you might be able to see why I still think and talk about Grandpa Bill every day more than a decade after he passed. I read this at his funeral at St. Patrick’s Church on Feb. 20, 2015.
