How great it was to find this memorial to my grandfather who died in the line of duty almost 80 years ago. I think my mom was only 3 when it happened. I can't imagine how hard it was for my grandmother and my mom and aunts and uncles. I wish I could have met you. You are a hero to our family and we will always remember you.
