Hard Work, Dedication, and Love Pays Off
Brad Wyman was born on October 28, 1953 in Bellingham Washington. He is currently 63 years old and lives in Bow Washington with his wife Janet Wyman. He is an inspiration to me because he works hard no matter what.
I chose to honor my grandpa because he is always inspiring me to try my hardest on everything I do. He helps me see that if you work hard for something you will get out of it what you want to. He loves his family unconditionally and I admire that. The message that he would like to give to my generation is work hard and spend less time on your smartphones so that you have more time to be kind and love each other.
He said that when he was a child he was troublesome. As a child his most vivid memory was living on the farm in alger because he loves farming and it will always be a part of his life. Having this memory helped him to choose his career for the future. He loves working the soil, being in nature, and knowing that he is helping his community by growing food.
Other than farming his family is the most important thing in the world to him. He makes sure that the choices that he makes not only help to better his life but help to better the lives of his wife, Janet, his four children, and his thirteen grandchildren.
The funniest memory about his children is the time when his daughter, Brenda, was playing basketball and scored a basket on the wrong hoop. The best thing about being a parent to him was being able to watch his four children grow and become the amazing people that they are today. Whenever he sees his children he remembers the amazing gift that god gave him by blessing him with people that made his life how it is.
The most cherished family tradition for him is going to kalaloch to camp with all of his grandkids and his wife. Kalaloch is one of my favorite camping trips of the year because I get to be with all of my cousins and my grandparents. It is a really good time for us to bond and be together since we are all so busy all of the time.
What he witnesses on a daily basis is people in too much of a hurry. He wants people to slow down and enjoy god's beautiful creations that are all around them, like he does. What he wants most for our world is peace.
His goal for his life right now is to stay healthy so that he can spend more time with his children and grandchildren. I hope that he stays very healthy because I love having him to love and inspire me.
I love him so much and hope that I can make as much as an impact in his life and in others lives as he did in mine.
