It came out at my Dad's memorial that my Grandfather used to beat the living poo poo out of him, and he was thrown out of a plate glass window trying to protect his little brother (my Uncle). I had always suspected something like this had happened because he left home at 16, and always had a bit of a temper, but it was something else hearing it from my Uncle who was trying to choke back tears. I think the only other shocking thing was hearing that my maternal Grandmother was raped as a child, and that because her father was of high ranking in the RCMP, they did not go after the man because they didn't want to bring shame to our family. She was the sweetest sweetest woman, and it always made me so angry to think of anyone hurting her, or not standing up for her. The good thing is that my Grandpa was an absolutely amazing man, and loved the hell out of her.
