Handed Down

I just wanted to share some of the items that have, little by little, been sent to me the last month from my big sister Nila.

Our Father passed away this past August 26th and it's been a chore handling his estate, for the most part is in Pearl River, Louisiana.

My sister is the Executor of his estate and has been passing many personal effects of my father's to me. But what I received Saturday blew my doors off.

I never got to meet my Grandfather, he passed about 4 years before I was born. My father still had quite a bit of his personal items and keepsakes, most of which I had no clue existed.

Hope you enjoy some of the cool stuff that has now become mine 🙂

For Clarification purposes, these were claimed during the war overseas, thus the separated ribbon and stray threads. Need not say any more...
