Merry Christmas and The New York Times

My present to my grandfather this Christmas is on page 50 of The New York Times magazine, for the feature The Lives They Loved.  It seems like the perfect tribute for a love story that started in high school newspaper class 71 years ago.

Merry Christmas, Grandpa, it’s not Parade Magazine, but hopefully it is a suitable substitute.

    Like many of your photos and words this brings a tear to my eye and leaves me with goosebumps. A longtime “lurker”, thank you for so candidly sharing your life and work.
