  Family News Rest in Peace Aunt Marian

I learned today that my Aunt Marian passed away yesterday at home. She had been ill for some time but I had no idea she was so close to leaving us. I was hoping that she would make it at least long enough to enjoy another family reunion.

Our prayers and thoughts go out to Harold Sr., Harold Jr., Rick, Tom, Vicki, Kelly, and all their spouses and kids. We wish we could be there for you all, to say the least. Over the next few days, I will post about some of my favorite memories in my blog.

  Site News Guest Book Offline for a bit

Some hacker/pornographer has decided to spam our guest book with filth so I have had to take it off line for a while. I have a newer guest book module that I have to install then import the data from the old one. It will take a day or two until I find the time to get it done.....

  Family News Your Prayers Requested

Please pray for my wonderful Aunt Marian. She is very ill and all our prayers are desperately needed. She and Uncle Harold celebrated their 50th anniversary just a few months ago in May and I, for one, would like for them to have many more years together.

Here is one photo of the front of the St. cloud Hotel here in Washington. This was just a couple of days after the fire that gutted this historic building. They have since torn down the biulding, except for the brick wall in the front.

Click on the photo to go to the photo album for more pics of the fire.
