Veronica McKenzie
I was born in St Helens Lancashire, and my Parents named me Veronica Molyneux, and went to school and grew up in the area.
I
met Tom at the Burtonwood AFB, where he was stationed, and we started going
out together, and when he proposed to me I was over the moon.
We
got married in 1950, and I was now Mrs Veronica McKenzie, I had to keep saying
it a few times as it seemed to have a nice ring to it.
We
left the UK in 1952 and went to Elgin AFB, Florida.
Tom
left the Service in 1953, and we later that year moved to Maryland to be
nearer Tom’s Family.
We
were blessed with four lovely children, our Son and three Daughters.
Sadly
after twenty-four sweet wonderful years Tom passed away on June 12th 1974, having suffered from cancer. (our Son’s twenty first Birthday). The
Girls were then aged 18, 10, and 6, respectively.
Someone
must have been watching over me, because I later met another wonderful man,
Tony Kowalewski, he was kind and got on famously with the children.
Things
went along so good that we married in 1978, and Tony had no problems with my
keeping the name McKenzie.
Now
I have Children, Grandchildren and a Great Granddaughter, Tony just loves them
all as if they were his own.
We
often go back to England though not altogether now as the Family has grown to
seventeen of us.
We look forward to hearing from anyone who may know us,
