An apology on his wedding day

told by Frank Burton

Streets & PlacesGrowing Up

I remember Mom telling me that on his wedding day, he came round to our house to apologise to Mom for always kicking the ball over the garden when he was a kid. Mom loved her garden and often used to tell him off for fetching the ball without asking. Mom often spoke of Sid’s wedding morning for many years after, saying how much she respected him for his apology. It’s amazing what you remember of things that your mom said when growing up.
