View all 22 ReflectionsAlthough I never got the chance to meet you, I am very proud to call you my grandfather. I share your story with many, just as Oma did. She never turned off her police scanner- and it wasn’t until after her passing that I realized why. The house the two of you shared on Railroad Ave has now been demolished, but the memories will last forever. The two of you truly made an every lasting impact on the town of Rowley.
Thank you for looking out for me from above.
