NICE PEOPLE
By Col Gordon Hencher
Gordon, a retired army officer, shows a photograph of his mother, taken in Cairo befor the first World War. His parents were what you could call nice people. Their example has taught him to value everyone he meets, no matter what race, creed or colour they may be.

Your thoughts about this video

Noella Meade
I thought this video embodies what we all need especially now that we live in a multicultural society. It is extremely important that we look for what is inside a person and not the skin colour, or anything else. I thank my parents for teaching the same values as Gordon parents did. My parents also taught me to make myself useful anywhere I go.

Emma Hencher
I thought this video showed alot of my family history. Gordon is my late grandads uncle and it was nice to find out about Gordon as I never new who he was.
