A Great Man
My Grandfather was laid to rest today. I wasn't able to be there.
My mother married my dad the same year Reginald married my grandmother and their union has spanned more than 50 years. Reg was a great man in both stature and in his character. He was a medic in World War II, though I did not know this until very late in his life. His memory began to fail several years ago, particularly his short term memory. He began to tell me stories from long ago which I had never heard.
He is much loved and will be missed by many.
