My mum and her dad never got to see each other, but I know they would/are proud of each other.
Yes very special here too & usually an emotional time, have grandad who survived WW2 was also a prisioner of war, died well after the war when i was very young & there is his father [my great grandad] whom was in WW1 & was gassed but died years later. So every year i give 2 mins of my time some years at their grave side tho will be paying them a special visit later with my cross.

Lest we never forget
