I was very lucky to have two sets of wonderful grandparents. Grammy (Gudny) and Grandpa Jack lived in the house next to the firehouse in Barnegat Light since 1935, my father’s family home. When my grandpa died in 1966 my Grammy sold it, apparently to a man who didn’t really use it much. He sold it in 1969.

Last June I took a walk to the post office and said hello to the man watering the flowers at this house.
