Simple JOY!
Missed Christmas! No choir concert, no parties, no decorating, no family time – well almost. A respiratory infection kept me out of commission for several weeks.

What Does That Mean?
Faith, Family & Feathers Faith, Family and Feathers is the wording on my husband’s grave marker. Hopefully future generations will ponder these words and find the meaning in Psalms 91. It sums up our lives together for 58 years. Faith in God is the foundation of our lives. The heritage of family and the legacy of previous generations causes…
