About two or three years ago, my dad gave me a necklace — a chain with a gold cross on it. My grandpa had given him two necklaces, one for me and one for my sister. It’s important to me because my grandpa passed away a little before my dad gave the necklace to me. I was sad, but it means a lot because I didn’t get to see him very often. He lived in Europe, in a country called Serbia, in a city called Novi Sad. I wish I could’ve seen him more or at least gone to his funeral, but it was in Europe, so I couldn’t.
