I don't know Any of my grandparents.

I don't know any of my dad's family side , and it's too late to meet my mom's parents. Makes me sad.

All of them are dead. My dad's dad died before I was born. My mom's dad died when I was 8. My mom's mom died when I was 12. And my dad's mom died when I was 13.

Grandparents on mom's side: truly incredible people. I wish I could be as amazing as them.

Grandparents on dad's side: .......they aren't terrible I suppose.

when you said they aren't terrible, I assumed your grandpa was a veteran or something

they're dead

Jocephalopod · March 10, 2015, 09:35:49 PM

as for me, the grandma on my moms side died in the 80s, my moms grandpa is racist

my paternal grandpa is a fucking genius, a modern philosopher that makes me feel dumb

he's also racist

Only my mothers side, never met my dad so never met that part of the family.

And my grandfather died when i was really little which sucked because I really liked him, and my grandmother died last year which sucked more than anything else, she lived with us so we all got pretty close.

He did, but that's not why I'm not a fan of them. The lack of really ever having anything to do with my family, but going out of their way for all the other grandkids and all that, is why.

They've all passed away. On my dad's side they were from a little crap village in Italy, but I saw them a few times.

On my mom's side my grandfather was in the Air Force and repaired planes in Montana during WWII. And my grandmother always made good food. My fondest memories are them taking me to a museum as a child (which created my obsession with Dinosaurs) Now I wish that I talked to them more...growing up I would always bring the original Xbox or Gamecube and play it in the basement. I regret that.

Love my grandparents.

Such great people.

Girl of Mystery · March 11, 2015, 12:08:13 PM

Both of my Dad's parents are dead. His Mum died before I was born, and his Dad died when I was super young (like 4 or something. Can't remember).
Both of my Mum's parents are alive. They're divorced though. My Nan is re-married, my Grandad is also re-married, but they left each other.
