I never knew them because they both died in WWI and that’s over a 100 years ago.
Thàt’s the difference. Think about it.

Lunchbreak —> time to read a book

This one is about a man who discovered his grandparents collaborated during WW2.
Real story and a unique opportunity to read about cruelties of a person in gain of power and money.

Our political leaders should treat everyone with honor and dignity, regardless of their identity or immigration status.

Thank you, Bishop Budde, for bravely supporting our community and holding our leaders accountable.
