My Nan died this morning at the age of 96.
Born in England in 1929, she lived in eleven decades. She was bombed by Nazis, lost her mother in the Blitz in 1940, and eventually left postwar Britain for Canada in search of a better future.

And today, I was able to teach Remembrance Day & the end of WW1 with a real artifact: my 1917 eighteen pounder shell. History is best taught and learned with a tangible connection, and today was a fun lesson! #RemembranceDay
I share this story each #RemembranceDay.
This is my grandfather’s step-father, Capt. George M. Smith, Rhodes Scholar, PhD.
Capt. Smith served at The Somme, where he was responsible for sending the boys over the top. For his “bravery,” he received the Military Cross.View quoted post on X
