The grandmother lived in our house, and who raised us. And that was a natural man, who was almost never sick, only now and again a headache. She is a very modest woman was. And she had 14 children and died in our house. She was never in a hospital and get all the children at home, all fourteen. And as I said, which has drawn us great. And that has taught us to pray. And the '43 bombing, the Americans dropped the bombs primarily in Colle. But the siren we heard in Pflersch. Since they have the track Thank God rather missed forever. They have twice dropped bombs in Pflersch. The siren has gone half past ten at 10 AM .. mostly. As the grandmother of us all at the Bank has had to pray and kneel. Because it was kind of a religious person yet. Thank God that I have noticed it until today. I must thank you, mother. Because his own mother had died early. And that was really the grandmother of her mother had seen a great for us. The real mother, she was practical, and the six children who taught us all that is good, yes.
