Mom always spoke with reverence about Sgt. York. She was from the little community of Willow Grove which is under Dale Hollow Lake now, about 30 miles from Pall Mall. I wonder if it was just pride in a local boy who became a national hero or if Grandpa shared a little 'shine with Alvin before he "got religion". One of those things I'll never know.
