Recently, the Chaminade-Julienne Alumni Facebook page posted a video of of members of the Ohio State University alumni band playing the Eagle fight song. In the video was a graduate from Chaminade in 1944, the same year as my grandfather, great-uncle and a 2nd cousin. (Chaminade and Julienne were two separate schools, a boys school and a girls school; today, they have combined to make one school). What really caught my attention about this video was the graduate from 1944, since this was the same year as my grandfather, Paul George Jeckering (1925-1954). Since he passed away when my father was only 4 years old, he nor I never knew him. Paul died young, at the age of 28 years old. He was a very artistic person and I've always wondered what he would have done with his life if he hadn't died so young. With this thought and thinking about the man in the video, who was still alive, I wondered how many of Paul's classmates are still alive today. Hence, my recent project:
