He taught me more than any other man and I still miss him.
Oscar Tschirhart was my grandfather.
He would have turned 111 years old this week.

And every time I taste a Lone Star, he comes to my mind.
He taught me to ride, to rope, to face my fears in a way that still accompanies me today.

Wonderful mentor, Scott. I never knew my grandfathers either. One was a rancher (Tonto Basin) and homebuilder and the other was a surveyor and civil engineer. They must have seen and done some things ...

You were blessed Scott! My grandparents (on both sides) were a great part of my life. I and thankful for them.

Re: He would have turned 111 years old this week.
I knew half of my grandfathers, Dad's side.
My Mother's Father was an Englishman that immigrated through Canada. He took my grandmother off the reservation. He had a general store, was a justice of the peace. When my mother was born he was 82, and she has a baby brother!!
A village is named after him, Paynesville, his guns are in the Carson City museum. This was a man I wish I could have met!
