Wow, what a great letter. Loved the part about
In Belgium we knocked on the door of a convent/elementary school. My dad brought us and the nuns down to the basement where, according to him, he lived on cheese, cheese, cheese. The highlight was when he walked over to a window frame he had repaired during the war.....and his initials were still carved there. It somehow really struck him. ;-)
Now, what a thrill that must have been.
Thanks for joining and I hope you find our forum helpful. Would love to see the pics in the near future.
