It is sad. The're even sellng his pants!

I have some of both of my grandfathers' tools. I use the big set of wood clamps from my dad's dad regularly and I have this bizarre articulating pliers with a wire cutter on the side, from my Mom's dad. It has an 1896 patent date on it. It might even be his father's pliers, since he was born in 1898. Those will get passed down to my kids.
