I love the quote from your great-grandmother, giving him advice. I can hear her speaking!

Me too! I've been pouring through old home video to see if there are any with him speaking.

How lucky you are to have heard your grandfather's story firsthand.

So true. I knew him for 50 years and can hear his voice in the words he wrote. I'm lucky to have had his written memoirs passed to me.

In later life Louie was a kind generous man you had a strong religious belief. He loved little ones. He loved to make his train whistle sound.

Yes he was and you may just hear about all of that later in the story. :)
