Sent Thursday, June 4, 2009 – on my birthday. It sounds like I might be a lot like Dad when it comes to celebrating.
Dear Justin, GLAD BIRTHDAY TIDINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Back in ‘77, after celebrating your birth with Uncle Charlie O, Uncle Charlie R, and Uncle Barry, I remarked that “I am not responsible for anything that I say or do”.
Charlie O. said, “that’s obvious to the most casual observer”.
Not sure why I remember that, or how I remember it, for that matter.
Much Love and Always, Dad.

I have a few regrets as old age carries me into even older age. If I were to make a list of regrets, high on the list would be: 01. Too damn busy trying to survive life on a “partnership” dairy farm to fully enjoy my children during their early years. 02. Too damn busy later on with trying to recover from all those years trying to survive life on a dairyfarm, which made it difficult for me to know and to enjoy my grandchildren, but I’m sure proud of each and every one of you. Love, Mom, Grandmom
