  • A note of thanks from your great niece, you gave up your life and your chance to have a family of your own to safeguard the future for your brothers descendants who have lived in peace. Your nephew, who was named after you has just celebrated his 90 th birthday, no boys in the following generation, but the girls have remembered you and what you have done and your name lives on as you live on in the hearts of those who never met you but who truly appreciate your sacrifice and love you as only family can.
