Thank you so much for these special thoughts about your grandfather, my father! You captured things about him that I might have thought about but hadn’t put into words. This is all very heart warming for me and dearly appreciated! We both found the letters amazing!
I love this. I have cartons of artifacts — letters, photos, newspaper clippings my Aunt Mary saved, love letters from Uncle Chuck to Aunt Millie (Mary’s sister) — that are a family history archive. I am guessing, too, that your grandfather and my uncle knew each other at Fort Carson. Enjoy your brief hiatus.
Aren’t these family artifacts wonderful to have? This year, I’ve found myself especially interested in them—they give helpful perspective. And what a coincidence that your uncle was at Fort Carson at that time too!
This was a gut-wrenchingly beautiful read that really hit hard. I'm welling up. Harry Steiner sounded like a remarkable man. Thank you for sharing some of his life and words with us. What a GIFT that you have these letters. I love how you put it: "He has so little. And also, he has a lot." WHAT a perspective that could be applied to oh-so-many things.
