Celebrating Grtgrandpa's Life

I have had a few private requests and at this time I will try to hold my word on my responses.

For those of you who were touched by his life and who want to do something, maybe bring some sunshine into the lives of strangers by doing some of these random acts ~

Buy some roses and hand them out to strangers to brighten their day
Smile at others
Talk to others kindly
Help someone who is new to sobriety
Stay sober

Add your own ideas to this list and remember to tell them "This is to celebrate Grtgrandpa's Life"

Grtgrandpa lived the spiritual principles of Alcoholics Anonymous and spread joy and happiness to those around him. He was serious when it was needed (alcoholism is a life and death matter) and he had an awesome sense of humor, too!

He would also suggest not staying in self-pity and mourning his loss, but to live your life more vibrantly and touch the lives of others, especially those who are still struggling.

Spread acts of kindness around the world in celebrating his life!
