From Scotland to El Salvador
in 1897
He sailed at sixteen
He was greater than life
∴
He was adventurous
Loving, kind, and generous
Honest and humble
He was greater than life
∴
He built houses
A park and a theater
A coffee processing plant
He was greater than life
∴
He was loved by his wife
His children and grandchildren
His neighbors and the community
He was greater than life
∴
He was my grandfather
He was greater than life
Wow, so you’re Scottish!
