Heritage - Abuelito Chon


My mom's father, Concepción (Chon or Shon for short), is quite the man's man. He worked very hard all of his life and made sure his 9 children and 28 grandchildren were aware of how much he loved his wife and that they knew how to work. The best way to describe my grandfather is to say he is a proud man who smiles with a twinkle in his eye, loves to hunt, owns a farm, and is very emotional when it comes to family and things he loves. When grandma died, it tore him apart and he blamed himself even though she died in a tragic car accident in Texas. If I'm emotional or proud, it's because of him. He's tall and slender, and like my other grandfather...pretty good looking. I guess that's where I get my good looks! :D
