heritage


My grandparents, my mother and uncle. Taken about 1922. Grandma's parents had immigrated from Denmark as young adults. Grandpa's family claimed relatives on the Mayflower, but grandpa was skeptical. Uncle became a dentist and died of Alzheimer's brought on by head trauma from a falll.
They were all good people.

He was always a very handsome man. During WWII he served on a submarine. Little was said beyond that. After the war he went to Dental school. I didn't see him as much as I would have liked.
