Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Known as "Pop" to his grandchildren, my daddy left a tremendous legacy of pride in his country and commitment to his family. This was one of his favorite cookies, and mom ("Grandmother") often made them for the holidays. Always looking after her "sweetheart", she would often put a roll in the freezer for him to enjoy when all the company had gone!
