Thank you for the memories

Thanks to a friend I received the article in your February edition about cutting ice years ago. It referred to an article by Carol Laun where she interviewed Leon L. Gilbert about that.

There was a picture of men cutting ice also.

I want to thank Faith Tyldsley for researching the Granby Historical Society Records for the article.

It had special meaning to me as Leon L. Gilbert was my father. The men cutting ice were my husband Howard’s uncles and Grandfather Dewey—so a double blessing.

Thank you, Faith, for your work putting the information together.

Sincerely,

Shirley G. Dewey
