To that I have to admit I omitted it was my paternal grandparents.  That
grandfather lived in NY; he was 6'6" and that grandmother was about 5'
and from Ohio.  Unless my sister knows, I won't know the full story about
how those two met (they were both from England), why they eloped and other
stuff.
 Everybody has a story.  My mothers parents and siblings were the kind who
would give you the shirt off their backs.  There are other people like that
today, but the question is WHEN will they do it?  Anyway, my mother's older
sister used to make a great big pot (almost a kettle) of homemade soup on
the Saturdays my sister and I were there -- mother worked at Sears and my
brother was in the Navy then -- and she invited strangers in off the street
to come in and have lunch with us.  It was really good soup, too.  It was
there I learned how to make Italian sausage.  My uncle owned Peter Romano
& Sons Italian Sausage on Decatur Street.  I'm pretty sure it is no
longer there.

Almost the same thing happened to me, only I was 19.

I thought they might be, but I knew no one who was there.  I knew a couple
of guys who fought in Korea.  That was bad enough.

I wonder what he ate to sustain himself after his escape and how long it
took him to get into friendly territory?

There is now if there wasn't before.  (-8
