Spring - it’s a time of new beginnings.  Today be prepared to hear the raw experiences from the memoirs of Heinz Meyer, my grandfather, who was a boy living in Germany during World War II.  He eloquently recounts his stories from during and after the war - and interestingly he did an amazing job comparing the end of the war to spring!
