My cousin dug up an old photograph of my grandfather. He was a WW2 vetern, it has been many years since he passed away from a heart-attack when I was a teenager. I don’t remember the exact year now but I do remember upon hearing of the  news that I spent an entire day staring out my bedroom and crying over it.

A few things I still remember of him… He always teased me. He was a frequent ear scratcher and he had a very unique way of doing it. I remember one morning when my grand parents had their trailer at Oromocto Lake parked on the lawn at my parents cottage. He was cooking bacon, it was probably the best bacon I ever had… It was the fatty back bacon I believe and I’ve never had anything like it since…
