Guy Denton was my father. He wrote some 70-plus letters to my mother from North Africa. To read their story is to gain a glimpse into the quintessential "Greatest Generation" couple. Both my parents grew up in the Great Depression, lost loved ones in the greatest military conflict in world history, and raised a family through the "Leave It to Beaver" fifties and the social revolution of the sixties. As time goes on, I will share with you vignettes of their life, especially through Dad's letters to Mom before he finally got her to agree to marry him. I'll post photos of that time as well. I hope you enjoy them.
