Remembering Poppa

Today would have my Pop's 100th birthday. He passed away on 10th August 1978, 19 days before his 70th birthday.

His name is Norman James French and he was a hard working farmer who drove a white valiant.

I will always remember his husky voice and his heavy breathing from years of smoking which eventually claimed his life. There are not many photos of him around and he always looked much older than his years.

This is one of the few photos of him and me with Nanna, Mum and Rodney and Steven.
