Best Canadian Ever
My Grandfather, 94, passed away this morning. Born to a fallen WW1 hero he and 3 sisters were left to raise them selves his oldest sister was 12 at the time. Never seen a man eat so fast in your life being raised with little food the man didnt play at dinner.

Great guy and he will be missed.

I knew there was something good in your makeup. Now I know what branch.

Not many WWI vets left. I find them more interesting than any other war vets.

That's a big loss to all of us.
