We lost a fine immigrant today. My former father in law, whose early life was a trial of war, loss, and occupation in Poland. Who lost a father and found him, and a new life in the US, a decade later. Who served this country then worked and raised a family. He was mostly reserved, and you could...

Thank you. It's weird getting divorced, not everything breaks, but it can't be the same, either. I was sad to lose him then and now.
