Duty for Gum & Honey

So very proud to share that I have published a Book! It's called "Duty for Gum & Honey" (available on Amazon.ca) and tells the life story of my husband’s Great Uncle. It’s not about the battle of war but rather a collection of artifacts from “Dear Mom” Letters and more providing insight into the personal side of such a trying time and just how many people were affected by the actions of this one very brave young man.

Remembrance Day 2024

11/9/2024

Remembrance Day has always been an important day for me to stop and reflect.  My Dad, Stan, volunteered to enlist in 1939 at the age of 18 and as luck would have it, he managed to be the only one from his regiment to return.  He was trained to be a tank gunner but instead a colonel took a liking to him and shifted him away from frontline duty making him his "batman."  This dramatically changed his future.  He escaped and was safely away from battle aiding his charge, driving and looking after him. 

He stayed in WWII up until 1945 when he successfully managed to safely return back home intact to London, Ontario.  He did take a risk trying bringing along German Luger guns, and while others panicked and threw then overboard, he held on and later sold them!  Yep, that was my Dad.

Another perspective, as I think about this day in 2024, is the story about my Husband Scott's Great Uncle Scott Tudhope Calder Thomson.  I have been fortunate to have been gifted with artifacts that tell his story so much better.  They are now in a book, just minutes or hours away from being officially published, on Amazon.ca (with Kindle to shortly follow).  It's a "tear-jerker" but also so full of emotions that unite all of us as a people who care for our families, our homes, and our country.  "Duty for Gum & Honey" is the name of the book.  It contains a text section and then a segment of scanned images that include photos, letters and cards.

I hope that you will check it out and continue to embrace how important Remembrance Day is for all of us.  Thank-you.
