Winnie the Pooh and Churchill (Winston), Teddy bear from friend who lost his wife several years ago, Pooh they know now, Churchill (my hero) later

9 Mar 2018admin

My friend Danny lost his wife several years ago.

She had a collection of dolls and stuffed animals.

He has seen me with my grandkids at the coffee shop we frequent.

Recently he asked if they would like a Teddy Bear that his wife used to own. I of course said yes.

I named him Winnie for Winnie the Pooh and Winnie (Winston) Churchill.

They can relate to Pooh now and as they get older, I will use Winnie to introduce them to my hero, Winston Churchill, who played a major role in saving the world from Nazi Germany.

I hope that they will do the same with their children someday.

A way to remember grandpa and Winston Churchill.

And Danny. Thanks.
