I knew your Grandparents Carl and Dora very well as we all lived in Bumbletown in the 40's & 50's. They were great people, in fact your Great Grandparets were my Godparents. Your Grandparents influenced us kids to leave the Copper Country and join the military to better ourselves vice get stuck in the copper mines or cutting pulp wood.
