Very interesting. Thanks.
Almost makes a grown man weep, both for joy and a longing for the personal pride and standards of days gone by.
Wonderful interview and writeup.
If you do another "interview", see if you can get him to talk about his WW II experiences!

What a great read.
My Granny is 90 years old, and grew up where I was raised in a remote area of the Ozarks.
She was 13 the first time she ever went to town, which was an all day long trip requiring an overnight stay.
She knows how to make lye soap, medicines of various kinds from plants in the woods, and could always build anything she needed.
There was nothing in the woods she didn't know how to catch and eat. She was a fantastic gardener and canned a ton of stuff every summer.
She is physically a little feeble but still mentally sharp as a tack.
This is a picture of me and her taken a couple of weeks ago...
