The Waterboys . . .

My father’s father was a brakeman on a Canadian railroad when the average lifespan for a brakeman was under 18 months. Luckily he emigrated to the US and found employment as a chauffeur and not surprisingly as a bodyguard to a guy that owned an insurance company. Born 139 years ago, passed away 53 years ago.
