Paul Edward Zuelke, M.D. Tribute

Jennie hosted a gathering at her home for all the grandkids that were in town on Saturday before the service. They used a flip chart to remember all the things that grandpa had taught them. This was to be used to help Jenn write her eulogy. When I got home yesterday...it was in my car so I thought you'd like to see what they wrote...

Things we learned from Grandpa:
Always love one another
The best Shirley Temples are made with all grenadine and just a splash of 7-Up
He could always relate no matter what we were talking about
A good man will always bring you flowers
He taught us how suck helium out of a balloon
Always find the good in people
Always awake and ready to get the day started
He genuinely enjoyed people
Don't mess with the morning paper
The secret ingredient in the best pancakes is bacon grease
Always stay up on current events
Have opinions about everything but don't judge others
Love each other no matter what
Grown men can play with trains
Pie is perfectly acceptable for breakfast...it is fruit after all
He taught us how to make a strong drink
Happy hour is 4:55
Learn how to make initials in the pancakes
Never forget loving each other
Whoever doesn't cook gets to do the dishes
Our grandfather delivered alot of babies... our friends, our neighbors, strangers we met on airplanes and even some of our boyfriends.
Love each other no matter what
Dropping his name would get you in to see a doctor sooner
Always make people feel special
There is a difference between a Mercury and a Mercedes
Always have candy in the car
It's ok to sneak children candy when the parents aren't looking
