  • You have been thought about a lot this week. Your great grandson Jimi has chosen to do his school project about you and both him and his Pop (your son John) have enjoyed reminiscing/ hearing stories about you - from all the shrapnel you still carried to your grave, being super impressed that you were a sergeant in the army, to wrestling a cop (little did the cop know you were a national wrestling champ!). Your memory will still live on for a long time yet ♥️
