Great memories will always prevail, & this goes back to the 1940's
When backyard parties & games were the norm. Laughing & giggling was always the mood, Adults & children alike.
When people stay in touch this long, there is a reason, & Peg was a prime factor for that, I have been blessed with having this family as a part of my life.
