This is a picture of Grandpa...(the shorter one) and his brother ( Uncle Mikes father)...I am sure none of us have ever seen Grandpa that young...I guess-ta-mate he is in his late teens at the most. I think it was taken before he was married and I think he and Nonna were wed at age 18 or 19. I am almost sure that both Nonna and Grandpa were born in 1894 and I think Aunt Millie was born about 1913 making them about 18 when they were wed....If anyone has a better handle on these dates please let me know. I love the straw hats, if he was married at the time of this picture Nonna would have already made a broom out of it.....

I would never guess this is Grandpa. Wish he had spoken more to reveal more about himself - never really got to know much about him. Dad must have gotten that perpetual little smile from him.
