My Mom's favorite cousin
I was 4yrs old. And distinctly remember a man in uniform knocking on our front door. I didn't know who he was, but Mom did. He entered with hugs and tears to a man I never knew. They talked for hours at the kitchen table about their childhood. His funeral had been blazed in my memory forever. Never forget where you come from!
