This picture of me and my maternal grandparents was taken in the spring of 1953. My mother had passed away the previous November and this was my first visit after her passing. This is one of my earliest memories, I was 4 years old. My grandfather was the elected sheriff of Wolfe County Kentucky from 1950 to 1954. I am sure the reason this was so memorable for me was my grandfather is letting me look at his service revolver.
My Mom&Dad before they were my Mom&Dad. 1943 in flight training, probably in Texas.
