My grandmother held a lot of sadness in her heart that she didn't share (I wonder if she even told my dad, her son, about it as he was big on sharing family history with us. If I'd been closer to my grandmother, perhaps she would have shared more, but for a variety of reasons, she was distant. Appreciate the comments.Linda Gartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00740477693031139484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3853410677893201016.post-55800513960125567002011-10-07T10:47:57.560-05:002011-10-07T10:47:57.560-05:00How sad that this family never found its way back ...How sad that this family never found its way back to each other.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3853410677893201016.post-49052272263903002172011-10-07T10:46:48.398-05:002011-10-07T10:46:48.398-05:00Such an amazing saga.
