Unfortunately I was never to meet my grandfather. He passed long before I was born. He was a very very tall man. Well over six feet. All of my uncles were too. The story goes that Grandpa hit his head on the doorframe of an old Ford car one day. He died of a concussion the following day.
I am not sure it that is the true story or not. There must have been something else going on too.
From what I was told Grandma ruled the roost in the house.
