Great Grandpa

by Bradley from Morinville


Hi, my name is Bradley, and I am 9 years old. There are 4 people in my family. I am the oldest child, I have a younger sister. My dad works in the army, and my mom she takes very good care of all of us.

My hero is my Great grandpa, Dido, Paul M. Chura. He died when I was about 4 months old. I was the only great grandchild to meet him. Dido was born May 29, 1910 in Krydor, Saskatchewan; he died December 1,2000. My great grandpa, Dido was a very successful farmer and business man, in Krydor and Prince Albert, SK. My great grandpa was honoured by the city of Prince Albert in 1998 when they named “Chura Court” in his honour.

Great Grandpa was a hero to me because he was nice to me when I met him. I want to be a driver and a dad when I grow up, and I want to be as good a worker as Dido was. I think my great grandpa watches over me and helps me to be a good boy.
