Then out of the blue he litterally sat up in bed and said get me my wallet. Someone quickly retrieved and gave it to him. He dug through it and pulled something out. He sighed and layed back down. We all were fairly puzzled and then he turned to his side and in a hushed voice said here is the reciept for the boots in my closet, you still have two days to return them. That is almost the last thing he ever said.

Wow, that is kind of odd. But kind of cool in a way, and I mean no disrespect.
But it in way, knowingly or not, your great grandfather may have been trying to tell you something. Kind of a last minute gift if you will, to show you he didnt lose his humor, or his personality, even when he knew his own fate.
Thats a very touching story, and i bet your grandfather was a strong willed person, or very fun to hang out with in his time.
