Looking back over the last 50 years of marriage gives me a feeling that
GOD has blessed me very greatly. First HE put me near Her, and then HE
let me know what heaven could be if She was with me. Ann keeps me in my
place, and helps me to live a better life. Then we added another seven
to our family...Wow, And each new life, added depth and strength to our
living. To each of my strong children, I will ever be indebted. They
are each endowed with qualities that make them so wonderful and great.
Now we find ourselves very busy just in keeping up with them. Most of
our almost 30 grandchildren are close by, and the widening sphere of our
family now covers the northern half of the United States from Washington
to the great lakes. One,was in the south west,but is now with us in our
north west.
Life is great. And we have the thought that we will have another great
grandchild before the year is out,to add to the 5 boys that are ours.
I never in my wildest dreams thought we would be the progeniters of 50
plus individuals. And that is why I say WOW...
Now, today with the prospect of our country going through a Tramatic time
we are happy that our kids are well grounded on being helpful and kind.
We have 12 Eagles and 1 3rd degree black belt...shich accounts for the oldest
13 boys.... and then the Girls are quite as well prepared and qualified to
lead great lives. The thought that even our two oldest daughters will be
finished with college degrees soon, leads us to believe we had help from the
heavens to accomplish such a wonderful life.
And, we have had a great circle of friends both in our Church and in our
neigborhoood areas... too add to the families we grew up in, wow, what a
ride we are having here on this earth..... I truly hope that you too can
look at what you are doing and what and whom you have, that you have the same
good feeling.. We love all of you, and that is the key.
So long for another 3 months.....
