MEMORIAL DAY 2015

Memorial day is Monday May 25

We'll meet at the cemetery at 9:00 am

We are excited for you to see the new headstone

for Grandma LaRue

as well as Larry's beautiful bench

We'll have our annual breakfast 

and four square game.

We're getting ready to renovate the basement

and upgrade the heating system

so we will appreciate help from all the

strong young men in the family

to help move furniture out of the basement

into the garage on that morning!

We'll call you to make the food assignments

for the breakfast.

Hope to see you all on  Memorial Day!

A Sweet "Tender Mercy"

Uncle Vic, Grandpa's 92 year old brother

passed away last evening, May 15, 2015

His daughter, Dree brought him to see us just

three and a half weeks ago!

He stayed over night with us and

he and Grandpa had such a good visit.

It was a sweet "tender mercy" for them to be together

and watch them express their love for one another.

We knew he wasn't in very good health but no one knew

just how sick he really was until they got him to the Dr. after he got home.

His funeral will be Friday May 22, 2015

 So happy to be together

Do You Know How to Make an Old Man Happy?

The highlight of Grandpa's week is cutting the lawn!

He was up at the crack of dawn,

hurried through breakfast and scripture reading

then he was ready to mow.

He hasn't been wearing his "boot" lately

but he agreed to put it on to mow the lawn.

I'm grateful we got it done before I had to leave 

to visit my sister and help her with lunch.

Now he's a happy man!
