He was the best of the greatest generation, a true gentleman and the one who won my heart.
He fought in the battle at Normandy in World War II and survived.
Shortly after the end of the war he met a young German woman on her bicycle. Their conversation sparked a love affair and a marriage of 52 years. After many years of grieving he met and fell in love with Helen who was with him when he passed away.
There were many trips, celebrations, dances and years filled with good times and bad times. He tried to do it all up to the very end.
Rest in peace my sweetheart. You will be missed dearly. I will never forget you. Until we meet again in heaven to dance in your arms. I know you will be watching over me.
I hope you feel the love being sent to you by everyone who knew you!
