Publisher Description
This book of biographies evolved as I was growing up quite carefree as a youngboy in a world that was engaged in World War II. I had two unsung heroesto guide me through my formative years. My grandfather Joseph Wiest, (Jojo), was a colorful survivor of the Spanish American War. As a youngster, Jojo toldme about his military adventures, holding me absolutely spell bound. I was so impressed that I remember these stores to this day word for word that I heard 70years ago. My father, (Norman J.) was a quiet man, but he too, was my idol. Jojo and Dad both blessed me with a solid foundation of principles and values to liveby. I also saw them many times bless unknown individuals with their random acts of kindness. I wrote this book with fond and humorous memories from what seemedlike only yesterday. Yet, today Im a seventy eight years young country boy from Western New York.
