37. And Poppy.
That was my grandfather. They were from Ireland, and have been gone for a very long time (he passed away in 1960, she in 1972) and I wish I could have gotten to know them better. I'm so sorry I saw them so rarely in their lifetimes. But we lived in upper New York State, and they lived on Long Island, and back then, prior to the opening of the Thruway, it was a long way to go. Then we moved out to Tucson in 1962, and Nanny came out to visit for a couple of months, then returned to LI, and I don't think I ever saw her again. How sad.
