Oh that sucks, You have inspired me to look into my family. It turns out i have alot of indian in me and on my grandmas dads side of the family is a long line of preachers and priests. I also have a cousin who did grandprix show jumping but unfortuanally had a horseback acedent and was killed.
Yeah... Unfortunatly I never met him... We only have a letter from his wife... He couldnt write it because he had suffered a stroke... He could only write his name at the bottom.
Ya his story is in Chicken Soup for the horse lovers soul. The person telling the story said that fred is her uncle. Man thats cool to be related to someone like that. Idk about my family tree
Yeah I heard something about that. I have a couple of autobiographies of his that were passed down. I'm also interested in investigating my family tree.
Didn't know colour film existed of this. Wonderful nostalgia.
