Description ย 
Decades of hard work, fighting in WW2, cultivating the land, raising children and feeding the family. And what is left behind? A jacket hanging in a home that once used to be. Now waiting for the nature to finally take over and bury it. Roof giving up, walls decaying, floors collapsed already. Slowly but surely everything will be gone. Gone to the distant land of far away memories. They say that a man is alive as long as the last person who remembers him. I still remember.

The dying ways.

"a man is alive as long as the last person who remembers him"ย  A sentiment I've always agreed with. There's a lot to be said for going out in a blaze of glory as opposed to fading away and being eaten by the cat. Did you know him?

I knew his as a child knows the man from the neighbour.

He would be 100 years old next June.

I shall make some kind of tribute when the time comes.

Thank you. It's a very familiar abandoned house for me.
