A.G. Akin. This photo was likely from the mid to late 1960s. He often showed this very smile that bespoke private amusement. He enjoyed joking and teasing, but in a kind fashion. Looking at this picture, I can almost hear him say: "Come 'ere, you lil' rascal". He was a very sweet man, and prone to cry easily and openly during emotional moments. I was 6 and seriously ill with polio during the epidemic of 1954, and I remember him sobbing beside my hospital bed and telling a nurse "..if only I could take his place".
