This was my Great grandfather. I personally new him for a short time. He stayed in a room at my Aunt Edith's house. Edith was his daughter.He would pass out gum to all the kids that came to visit him.He was a sweet man. When he died I remember the funeral. I was so young but I do remember It snowing that day.It was strange, it also thundered and lightning that day. For one reason ,it was December.
