"Home is where one starts from. As we grow older the world becomes stranger, the pattern more complicated of dead and living. Not the intense moment, isolated, with no before and after, but a lifetime burning in every moment. And not the lifetime of one man only, but of old stones that cannot be deciphered." ----- T. S. Eliot, 1888-1965 "Four Quartets, East Coker" (1940)

That's a wonderful story!
ReplyDeleteI love newspapers too, I have found some of the most fascinating stories about those I research. Some heartwarming, a few that were rather gruesome, and quite a few that were bizarre, but, I'll take em all.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool, Lisa. Good job of detective work on this one. What a neat thing to learn about your Grandfather. As far as I know, my Grandfather didn't sing. He didn't even talk much (when I was around him, anyway).
ReplyDeleteNote to self: spend more time digging through the newspaper files.
