Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.

Uncle Louie, Great memories of family picnic's at the farm. Playing hide & seek in the cornfields with all the cousins. Talking sports, Purdue-Ohio St, Colts-Browns, Cubs-Indians. Then you would talk of great players from the 50's & 60's. What a memory...Best personal arrowhead collection I ever saw from all the years working the fields. Always up for any yard game or card game. What a competitor... It was an honor to know you. Rest in Peace.
