On this day in 1829 William Booth was born in Nottingham, England.  Despite the rumours begun by our children, I was not in attendance at his first birthday party in 1830.  However, 100 years later my Dad was born in 1930….that’s as close as I get.

So a salute to General William, you can read a bit about him here.

What would this world be like without him or Catherine?  Now that’s a what if with a thousand answers.
