My Grandfather, my namesake, died in 1956 the year I was born.
He was only 49, my age now and lived long enough to bounce me on his knee.
He was Chief of Police of my hometown, Hopkinton Massachusetts.

Thanks for the ping! And thank you to your father!

My father was stationed in Okinawa when he turned 17.
