Treasured Time With Family

Wednesday Evening, October 11 (1)We enjoyed supper at Landis Homes with Cerwin’s sister Doris, her husband, Bob, Cerwin’s mother, and her brother John. Bob and Doris were visiting from Minnesota, and since we wanted to see them, and know Cerwin’s mother likes to see them as often as possible when they are here, we decided to have our meal at Landis Homes.

(This was obviously before Mother’s fall.)

1 (2)Bob was interested in a family story during the depression, and asked a few questions which got John started on some amazing stories.

He is a great story-teller.

1 (3)Uncle John will be 99 in a few weeks and also lives at Landis Homes.

2A few nights later, Saturday, October 4, we took Cerwin’s mother to the 60th Wedding Anniversary party of Daddy High’s youngest brother and his wife.

3 (1)We arrived early, so I took a few pictures of the room.

This place used to be a family home. Mother remembers visiting the former residents many years ago.
