| Notes |
- Reminisces of Darrin Dennis Keener- My grandfather was in the
Navy in WWII, and he served in the Pacific. I remember my mom
(Beverly Joan Crane) telling me that he was headed home; his time wasup. On his way back, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, so he
immediately reenlisted and went back to the Pacific.
My memories of him involved a lot of work. He always had two jobs;
mom said he was like that his entire life. During the day he worked
in a gas station in West York and in the evening he was an usher at
the Strand Capitol in downtown York when it was a movie theater.
Everywhere he went he knew someone. He was quite a talker, and always seemed larger than life to me. Constantly strong and proud, but when it came to us grandkids, he was a big pussycat. He made it seem like the world stopped for us. And for sure, he did. In conversations with my mom, she said he was always like that. She'd travel with him to West Virginia or Ohio and no matter what town they stopped in along the way, he always knew someone.
