    Great grandfather - James Thomas Hillen
    Gramps (Alan) was very fond of his father, often remarking that he was a true gentleman.
    One sage piece of advice passed on by James to his son was 'always make love to your wife'. Gramps took these words to heart - his own marriage lasted 66 years.
