Joe & Angie

Today is Joe and Angie's 14th anniversary. This day was the first time all 9 of Abby's grandparents were present. It may have been the only time. The only picture of her with all of them was taken that day. Present were Jerry & I, Angie's parents,
(Leon and Cindy) my Mom (Rachel), Jerry's Mom (Lola or Nanny). Leon's Mom (Mary) and Cindy's Mom & Dad (Elmer & Bonnie). Since then our Mom's have both gone to a better place. Mary, at age 80, remarried and moved to Utah. Bonnie had a stroke and will probably be having Thanksgiving at her home for the last time. She is always so proud of the fact that she has lived on the family farm all her life. It will be real hard for her to move to town. All the family will be there to prepare the feast. I guess this is what we call "bittersweet."

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ONE AND ALL.
