For those who have never seen a photo of my brother Dave
this is one taken about 1939. He died at 13. I was there watchinng
him go with a smile on his face. When I think of it the tears flow.

Dad, wasn't his nickname "Swede" because he was so blond?

Sherrie - he died from Rheumatic fever. Pencillen would have saved him but only the military got that,

Diane - yes he was called "Swede" from his blonde hair.
