QotD: Good Genes

What family member do you most aspire to be like? Why?
Submitted by MalieKai.

I don't aspire to be like anyone in my family. I am who I am despite my genes. But I suppose if I were to pick someone, I'd pick my Grandma Hattie. She had seemingly infinite patience and infinite love to give.

It still saddens me when I think about what had happened to who she was after that incident with Uncle Andy. My own personal version of "the long goodbye," if you will.
