Boston Globe Obit Notice: Interesting Family JK Has |
|
Edited on Wed Jun-15-05 01:28 PM by TayTay
As with any death, condolences to the family. That said, I hope it's not tacky to mention that the writing in this article is nice and quirky. http://www.boston.com/news/globe/obituaries/articles/2005/06/15/alexander_c_forbes_war_hero_became_leading_developer?mode=PFGeez, my brother lives in Manchester-By-The_Sea. Lots of JK relatives live on the north shore.

1. He sounds a lot like his first cousin, one time removed (?) |
|
Handsome, charming, dignified, wants to help people, well dressed. Silver and bronze stars.
He seems to have lived and amazing life.

Reminds me of a lot of people. I loved the story about charming the woman with the shotgun out of her anger and into a compromise.
Just an interesting story. I hesitated before posting it, as it is an obit. I did find it interesting, but geez, you know......

3. I can see where JK gets it |
|
It seems that dignity, grace, integrity and heroism run in the family. :-)

4. This gentleman reminds me of JK's uncle who passed away |
|
a few months ago. The one living in England. I think it was JK's mother's brother. He was in his 90's too. There seems to be plenty of long-life genes in his family which is a good thing indeed!
P.S. How obsessed with John Kerry are you when you can recite the details of his family members' passings?
