Steep Falls, Maine
I honor my Grandfather who served in the army in World War II, I am so proud of him and proud to be an American because of him. He was a man of few words, and was a hardened man, but it's even harder to imagine what it would have been like to walk in his shoes. He was a true New Englander, a hard worker and so resourceful and self-sustaining. He would and could provide for his humble family. What an amazing man! He carried on his shoulders, more weight, than most men can bear today. I'm proud to be his grand-daughter.
