RUDOLF MARCZAK (MARSDEN) - FOLLOW UP

 
This was one of the proudest moments of my life.  I was able to get together with the son and grandson of Rudolf Marczak in my own home.  After writing Rudolf's story, it was an honour for me to have them in my home and to hold the framed collection of Rudolf's medals. 
 
Tony, his son, on the left and Gary, his grandson, on the right came to see me earlier this month.  The montage that I am holding consists of Rudolf's medals, his Gapa, his pilot's wings and a photo of  Rudolf, his wife Mona and their son Antoni.
 
Gary and I had to compile the story and the collection of medals in secrecy as a surprise gift for Antoni (Tony)'s 70th birthday.  It took a long time and a lot of effort but it was well worth it.
