Grandpa Willy

Ever since you were little I always talked about my father and your grandpa Willy. How he was living his dream job as being a sales man and traveling all the time. All he wanted to do was to be rich and support his family. Always was supporting me in becoming a great football, coming to my games, playing catch, and always talking about me becoming a sales man.

Having the dream of becoming rich and supporting your family is not bad, but do not let it control your life. Grandpa Willy dreams of becoming rich took over his life to the point that he was never home, Grandma Linda was lonely but always happy when he was home.  It also took a toll on his body, in which he got so worn down that he started to go crazy.

He is a great man to look up to, he taught me how to be supportive, but sometimes he was overly supportive. Yes I am happy that he supported me in football but not in school. He also pushed me into being a sales man, which I did not want to be. I really wanted to become a football player but I did not have the grades to.

I just want to let you know that you can become rich and do what you want to do. Do not let anyone push you into any different direction then what you want to do. I will try my hardest to support you in any way I possibly can.

Linda's Diary

May 24, 1948

Dear Dairy,

Today has been an interesting day even though nothing to exciting happened, just the usual. Woke up did my stuff around the house, cleaned, made sure the boys and Willy got ready to go to work and school. Willy is a hard worker, I know his dream is to be rich like his older brother  Ben and give me all the things in the world. In all honesty I am happy with the house, the boys and the things we have. I would just like Willy to be home more often, find a job in an office maybe so he is not always on the road.

Anyways that is all for today until next time.

Dear Dairy,

I am so glad the boys are home again. I love having the noise and other people to take care of. But ever since Biff has been home Willy has been acting strange again. I do not like when he does this, he works hard and has to much on his mind. I know something is mentally wrong with him but I do not want to tell him he is going crazy. Deep down I think he knows that something is wrong because he keeps trying to kill himself. First time was when he crashed the car, which people said it was no accident, and personally I believe them. Willy is a good man but these mental break downs are getting worse and worse, I do not know how much I can put up with. All I want is for him to quit his job, be home, relax and have my Willy back.
