War Vet Walks Granddaughter Down Aisle Then Passes Away

One of the most important moments in a woman’s life is when she gets married. It’s a time when she stands with the love of her life and they make a commitment to one another in front of God and family. But right before a bride says her vows, she has to make it to the altar. Normally, that means her father or other important male figure in her life walking her down the aisle. It’s always one of those special times that everyone cherishes and the entire crowd has their eyes on them. When it came time for Joanna to get married in Bialystok, Poland, she knew exactly who she wanted to walk her down the aisle. Her grandfather, 94-year-old Bronislaw ‘Grom’ Karwowski, was a decorated World War II vet. During the war, he was captured by the Nazis but managed to escape. But in 1948, he was arrested during the communist period and sentenced to 10 years in jail. Years later, he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Rebirth of Poland. Joanna knew that this special man was who she wanted beside her on her special day. So with the most amazing strength, this man walked his granddaughter to meet her husband. It was a moment that touched everyone’s heart and even brought some people to tears. Sadly, two days after the wedding, Bronislaw passed away. But this unforgettable walk was captured on camera and now the family can cherish the memory for years to come. What an amazing man.
