When my students ask me who my role model is, I always tell them that it’s my late grandfather, Agostino. On the day of his death, he forced himself out of his hospital bed to shave and dress in his finest suit merely because he wanted to look his best when the time came. As he lay in bed waiting, he turned to his wife of over fifty years and told her that he loved her. He held her trembling hand once more and said that he would visit her every night…to haunt her. A true husband until the end.
