Thank you so much :). He was a wonderful man. Unfortunately he passed away during Covid at the young age of 95! He and Grandma were married for 68 years. She passed a couple months after him at 94. I miss them very much but pictures like this remind me of how proud I am to have been his grandson.
I just spoke with my mom about it to get some of the backstory!
She believes this was in 1948. The camp was located just outside of Buffalo, NY. The premise of the camp was for those who were able-bodied to learn from those who had physical and mental disabilities.
