When I was five or six and it was time to learn to ride my bicycle without training wheels, my grandfather held the seat of my bike and steadied me as I pedaled around the cul-de-sac in front of his house. I have a vague memory of the moment I pulled away from him and rode free of support for the first time. Last weekend I traveled to be with my family and to attend his funeral. I’ve been thinking about family a lot in the week since.
