On March 16 2016, a playful tweet by Kelsey Harmon soared through cyberspace, making her Papaw into America's Sad Papaw. Now, through the pages of Sad Papaw's Heritage, we learn more about the man behind the image. A history that began on the wheat fields of Kentucky. Revisit the days when Americans first took to the fields to play a new game called baseball. Be there as the farmers struggled with hard work, doubts, and dreams of a new life in America. Experience the days when children first tasted graham crackers and peanut butter cookies. Days when parents and doctors struggled to find a cure for simple ailments such as pneumonia, headaches and even labor pains. It was a time in America that will never be forgotten.
Autobiography: Ironworker for 40 years. During my career, I worked in 27 different states.
On March 16 2016, my granddaughter Kelsey Harmon posted a photo of me on Twitter. The photo went viral across Europe, Asia & Australia, and I became known as Sad Papaw.
