This has long been my favourite photograph of Volker and our kids; now, it seems, it is a favourite of our grandchildren too.
I took it after Peter and Laura Burkard’s wedding – Trina had been their flowergirl – one year before Volker’s death.
Since moving into their new home Trina and Gary have had family photos sitting on the floor of the stair landing. Little Volker has just learned to climb those stairs. This is what happened:
Trina says he has very little interest in any of the other pictures, just the ones with Grampa in them.
Mina recently was “missing Grampa Volker,” so that photo is now hanging in the children’s bedroom.
