Video made for my brothers', Joel and Adam, 24th birthday about our dad, Ralph N. Grippo, who died Decemeber 1992 (he was buried on their 10th birthday). This song by Emerson, Lake & Palmer, he sang near the end of his cancer, except changing the lyrics in the chorus "Ooh, what a lucky man I am!"

The card at the beginning and end was made by my brothers when they were little (they loved playing chess with Dad, and after he died, taught me)

For more videos and footage of Ralph and family check out my channel on youtube.

  • I was 20 when this song came out. (Still have the album). Cruised around in my '62 Chevy Impala SS with my buddies blasting this song on the 8 track. At 61 now, I'm a grandpa of 6 and my father just died last year. He helped me work on that '62 Chev. Such a moving tribute to your father. Brought tears to my eyes. Lucky Man for sure. Thank You.
