My Grandfather
Hi my name is Debbie Harding and Henry William Harding was my Grandfather. A man I never had the honour of meeting but as his grand daughter am very proud of the service he gave to our country. I have Grandpa's medal's framed along with his certificate of service and a photo. I have shared this with his brothers and sisters who were extremely proud. I try to share our family history with as many members of my family as I can. Henry had several sons who also served and whom we are also very proud of.
