Last of Grandpa

This is my Grandpa de Bruyn, who died in 1958. 

He came to Canada in 1926, some of his children old enough to not join the family, my dad only eight years old. 

I have a theory that almost anyone can have an interesting documentary made about them, and I would certainly watch one made about him. Of course, as his granddaughter, I might be supposed to know something, add a fact or two, but in fact I know very little about him.
