I never dreamed I would make it this far but with the grace of God and TLC by my wonderful wife, I had the privilege of celebrating 82 years of living on July 14.
Beverly came, spent the night and then treated Barbara and I to dinner at Lone Star Steakhouse. She also was generous to a fault by presenting me with a new set of scales.[Wonder if she is trying to tell me something?] In addition, she brought a beautiful delicious red velvet cake with 3 pictures of me baked on the top. One was when I was about 10 years old and sitting on a pony with a cowboy hat and chaps. Another was a Navy picture of me and the last was a current photo. Boy, how looks change over the years?
It was unfortunate that Blain could not be here, however, he was in New York on business, two of his children were in camp and Lori, his wife was in Richmond caring for her Mother who had undergone surgery. They have really been busy!
I am so thankful for my wonderful wife, my two children and 3 grandchildren. I am also thankful for my daughter-in-law, Lori and her presenting me with those beautiful boys.
God is Truly good!!!!!
