My deepest sympathy to the family of Winston Groom. He was a great man. My cousin, Ed Hanlon, told me that Winston's father was his lawyer and that they would sit for hours telling stories. I know that Winston was a distant relative on the Hanlon side. The Hanlons came to Mobile in the 1850's from County Galway, Ireland. The Irish bring story telling to an art. Surely Winston has a new canvas of material to write about in Heaven. May God and all the Angels and Saints bless him.

Lt Winston Groom and I were in the same unit at Tan Son Nhut, Vietnam. We went on a one-day mission and I remember hin well. Funny, smart and very pleasant. I should have written something much earlier. Farewell my Vietnam brother.

Winston was a distant cousin. I never met him, but I knew some of his ancestors. My cousin, Ed, told me that Winston's father would talk with him for hours and they were great stories. I only now found out Winston had passed away. My condolences to his family.

Blessings and peace to the Groom family. I will remember Winston Groom as a fun, storytelling, big smiling, eyes twinkling, taller than an oak, Southern gentleman. He was always accommodating and always smiling. He could weave a basket full of tales and was beyond brilliant. I'm sure he's bending God's ear, and well "that's all I got to say about that."
