Is a ww11 vet, noticed he hasn't cut his grass in 3 weeks, going to have my yard guy start doing it. I figure he must be 97-98 because he told me he and his wife were 80 when I moved in here. His last name is Kuralt and his cousin was Charles Kuralt the journalist, correspondent, and news anchor. His wife is from Germany and is bedridden now. In the 17 yrs I've lived here I have only seen his son visit them once, pretty sad deal but then I have seen how my brothers have not visited my dad unless I say something to shame them. I just can't understand that kind of indifference from children towards their parents.

Well, my quick Google claims your neighbor is not charles's brother.......perhaps cousin?

Charles had a brother, his fathers Jr who passed in 2003 according to the innerweb...

Good for you to help him with lawn work. Three weeks is a while. Hope he and Mrs are ok.
I’m sure lucky to have a family that gets along and helps each other. Seems like there are many families that are estranged, thats sad.

Good on you Roger

Have you seen him recently? Maybe needs to be checked on?

My wife talked to him yesterday to let him we were going to take care of his yard from now on. Wanted to make sure it was ok with him.

You're a good man, Roger.
I only wish I still knew a WWII veteran.
Growing up, I knew so many. All are gone now.

I remember my grandpop saying the same thing about Civil War vets he knew when he was a kid.

That's what being a good neighbor is about. Good on you, Roger.


Don't be the darkness.

America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
