Seeing as you brought up his 'sainted mother', note how we are moving
further back through his family tree, the latest being, I think, "My
sainted Maternal Grandfather, may he sleep with the angels, ........".

Wonderful thing, this WorldWide Web... according to

I last mentioned my Sainted Paternal Grandfather on 15 Apr 2007 and my
Sainted Maternal Grandfather... never.

(this might have something to do with the fact that my parents neglected
even to conceive of conceiving me until a decade-and-some-good-change had
passed since his shuffling off this mortal coil... my Sainted Maternal
Grandfather - may he sleep with the angels! - as a result of at least
these circumstances, if not others, and I had fewer chances for first-hand
experience of each other)
