I remember Grandpa Chiri. . My dad would take me with him every Saturday when he went to shave my grandpa.
I remember Grandpa Chiri. . My cousins were all jealous Grandpa would give me TEN CENTS a week—the others only a NICKLE
I remember Grandpa Chiri. . I was, at that time, the ONLY “Chiri” grandchild. Non-Chiri grandchildren: 8 No male Chiri to carry on the name
I remember Grandpa Chiri. . When I was ten, he had another granddaughter with a Chiri surname, but, alas NO male to carry on the name
