Christmas, 1950s. Those were the iconic gatherings which set the standard for all others. Always celebrated "over home" at Gramma Mary's. Everyone dressed in their very best. All the ladies in their fancy aprons scurrying about the kitchen. The dining table stretched out into the "frontroom" to seat all the adults. Children sitting in the kitchen at the kids' table. Nine steaming dishes and five desserts plus hard sauce for over top. Christmas then brought our Family together. What a blessing our Family was for each of us. We miss those who have gone on and their memory lives. Merry Christmas, Eddy.

Sure hope you caught the last UW football game, Eddy. The Dawgs had a great victory over the Ducks. Gave us all a rush of pride just like days gone by.

My Dear Eddy, the Big Cousin who watched over me. How I cherish our road trip to Butte in 2019 and the fun ride to Whitehall where we popped into the A&W for rootbeer floats. You, me and your brother Glen. Delicious in every way. Memories certainly are precious gems.
