How do I begin....

To begin from the beginning of my life would be 70 years ago. That covers a lot of territory. I have been blessed with a full life, wonderful family, friends, career and now in semi retirement to begin a new phase of my life.
Along the way, Lew and I built a family of 5 children, shown below and then came 15 grandchildren and at last count 9 great grandchildren. Life has been rich indeed
My most favorite place to be is at our lake home on Deer Lake where we gather for family outings and reunions. The picture below of "part of the entire family", taken in 2006, is in celebration of the 30th reunion. We just had our 31st this August - we didn't get a picture!!
Our promise to Mom and Dad Grover, who began the reunions in 1976, to always continue getting together, has been fulfilled and will continue long after we are gone (I pray). It is our little piece of heaven - many wonderful memories are there, from the time our children were small to the great grandchildren now. It is our delight to welcome the entire family to visit, play, relax, have fun and good food. Come often, come early, stay long, and play hard.
