Love your story. Thanks for sharing... as it brought me back to also saving my father's belts. One of the numerous items kept after his passing. With one of the belts I commissioned a friend to make 3 leather cuffs from a belt with fine detail. These crafted pieces of jewelry were gifted to my 3 nieces as keep things of their Grandpa. Good to remember.

So touching. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into your special relationship with your grandad. How wonderful you went on that cruise together and now have that belt (both great photos included in this lovely piece of writing).
