DAD & MARY
My Dad is a fun loving person, always tries to be wittty even
when he feels bad. The past year has really been hard on his
health. He has dialysis 3 times a week and takes a pint of
blood most every week, sometimes 2. The DR's can't find where
the blood is going and it is really taking it's toll on him.
Just the thoughts of having raised 10 kids is enough to
think of it wearing any man out. But he has always been there
for each of us no matter what the problem or how large or
small it might be.
He has been blessed with a wonderful wife-Mary,(my stepmom)
I call her my other Mother. She has so lovingly took the
greatest care of him since he has been sick, yes sometimes
wearing her self out and yet going on with it, as it is no
easy job looking after him in his older days. *grin
I am so grateful he has someone who loves him and will make
sure he takes his medicines and keeps a close watch on him.
She is an angel in disguise.
We expect God to call Dad home at any moment, he has been so
good to us to let us keep him with us these past few years.
Dad says he is ready when God does gets ready for him. I know
one day I shall be with him in a pain free place as it is so
hard to see him suffer so much
My wonderful DAD
We always try to show him how much we love him
and even more so on his Birthday and Christmas
The whole gang
Dad's parents

his 74th BD
One of my brothers came up with
ideal to make this for Dad
but I had honor of making it.
Billy Bass the talking fish
He's had many a laugh
over this fish
Dad always wanted a "pink cadillac"
One of my sisters found
him one Christmas.
As you can guess he loves to fish-Aug.99
DAD'S 75TH BIRTHDAY-MARCH 2000
I think he really
enjoyed this Birthday
Seems we can always bring
out the best in him
Hamming it up
Having a good time
We just had a
small get together.
I hope his wishes
come true.
Dad requires a walker most days now.
Update as of Aug. 27, 2000:
Dad is going downhill very fast
Please keep him & Mary in your prayers
for strength and comfort.
