  • A prayer for a grand father I have a fleeting memory of him handing me a lolly as a child. He would have been delivering a new car to Auckland. Would like to know his full WW1 history I know he was gassed in France and his death in the 1960's was recorded as a result of his war wound. History showed he was a generous man delivering food he had paid for to the Maori on the East Coast when he had barely enough for his own family.
