Family weddings

This is the wedding of my Dad's uncle Robert, he was sadly killed in the war.
My Grandad sits to the left of the bride.

I adored my Grandad, him and my Grandma lived next door to me as I grew up, he had an amazing strong Suffolk accent that most people couldn't understand! He grew peas that I loved to pinch and eat fresh from the pod, he also kept pigs which I used to 'help' him feed. I can still picture him shouting the 'chaccy pigs' in for their tea.

He sadly died of cancer when I was 11, I refused to go to school one day for no good reason and that was the day he died. Maybe intuition told me he was going to go?
