Lucy,
I'm honoring Cole Hogan on Nuggets this Sunday morning. Your mom's first serious boyfriend, who later in life, helped me shop for the first Christmas present I ever gave your mom, one Saturday afternoon in Macon, GA. (A little wooden box.)
The above link, is a special piece featuring Andy Greenway, a dear of friend of both Cole and your mom. Hard to believe next year will be 20th anniversary of 9/11.
Be sure to watch.
Love,
Dad
P.S. Adding this note (and photo) from your mom: "Thank you for the special Nugget, Page. Cole was a great warrior and friend. Pop was his mentor throughout his military career and Cole’s mother, Jane, has been my role model since I met her at 16. Here is a picture of the antique box."
