These pics will show several of those who attended Diane's "family shish-ka-bob festival." I called it "Diane's" because she spearheaded it and was the prime mover to get it to happen. There were lots of 'bobs' eaten and good visiting.![]()
For some it was the first opportunity to meet Beth's fiance, Patrick. Beth's parents, Tom and Amy Russell were here from New York (Cnanandaigua) and on Saturday Beth received her endowments in the Jordan River Temple in preparation for her upcoming marriage to Patrick in the Palmyra, New York Temple later this month. Also during the week, Phillip coordinated some stripping of old paint, putting on new sealant and getting some of the trim painting done, as well as repairing the water rotted doors on the storage shed and getting it sealed and painted as well. Much of the back stair railings got painted in the process. He also came out and sprayed some broad leaf weed killer on my lawn on Saturday. Dan came by earlier in the week and did some handy help things around the place in addition to getting my grill working so that the ka-bobs thing could happen on Friday. Evelyn has arrived here for her summer vacation. You will note in a picture or two that Elder Clark Hatch is present having arrived home in the last few weeks from the Rome Italy Mission. There has been so much going on that I am sure I didn't chronicle lots of things that have happened. At least this gives you a little flavor and lets you know that Clarine and I are doing well. She did have a bout with a respiratory ailment a couple of weeks ago. With oxygen,which she is still using from time to time and with antibiotics and prednazone, she managed to go to North Carolina with her daughter, Diane to visit her grand son and new great-grand-son. She survived that okay, but was quite tired when she returned. Thankfully, she is doing quite well. Her son, Kent and his wife, Susan were here yesterday for a visit. They brought two of their grandchildren with them. The restructure of her foot and her hernia operation are in the final stages of healing. The Salt Lake Temple is closed for summer recess for two weeks (half over), so I am involved in doing odd little things my age and demeanor permit me to get involved in. I am certain that there is much more that could be said since I haven't written for a long time, but I think this will suffice for now. Love, Dad/Grandpa/George.
