  • Thanks to this website, we have met your side of the family. Thanks to them, we have more knowledge about you and wish so much more that we could have known you. Please know that the man who filled your shoes after you left us much oo soon, was a wonderful man. He was a great father to your son and a wonderful grandfather to me. We never stopped missing your loss though. He even wanted to be sure you werent forgotren when he adopted my dad. Instead of just changing his last name, he chose to change drop his middle name and put your surname in its place. Dad became Donald Jenkins Greenwood. No one wanted you forgotten.
