The one I remember best is the one that I captured in a few photographs.


Jim and Glenn traveled here to join in the festivities, and Jean came up from southern Maryland with her husband and two children, neither of who were married yet, much less had children. (It's hard to remember a time before their wonderful little ones were born! ) Dad had been hit by his stroke, but was otherwise well. Jim's daughter, Melinda, clearly enjoyed her seat right next to Grandma. Ben was also there, but I'm not sure about Jim's wife, Kathy. I'm sorry to say that I can only "remember" what the photos show.


This was also the family gathering where Jim and Jean broke the hammock!
That's one memory I do have that doesn't come from the photographs!
A friend told me that "...your mother is smiling down on you today." I'm sure Mom would smile to see these old pictures again and remember that special day back when she was still young.
