I don't think for your purposes you need anything super incredible amazing expensive. It's so neat you're doing recordings of your Grandpa.

You have probably read everything they have on transom.org, but this article comes to mind: http://transom.org/tools/recording_interviewing/200106.microphones.jtowne.html I also have a number of semi-useful and mostly cheap mics you are more than welcome to have/borrow-long-term.
