In order to make things go faster I decided to scan whole pages of photos and not break them up into individual photos. That takes too much time. Besides, you can download and edit as you wish. I will try to describe what/who is each picture. They are mostly family.
Mom and Skippy. Toward the end of he life Mom stayed in bed all day. Her doctor said she was slowly shutting down so she was moved to a hospice, where she lasted almost 3 weeks before passing peacefully in her sleep.
Inside of Mom and Dad's after Dad went to Elmcroft. Billy came up and helped me donate furniture and figure out if there was anything he wanted.
My and my best friend Max. He really kept me sane during the years when I was single, and hated it. He was the sweetest dog and did not bark! Bottom are uncle Bobby with his cat and Mom with his cat. Mom did not like cats but she was never mean to amy animals. She taught me to respect them, which I so, even the little slime mold i had in my garden.
Skippy. I am NOT into poodles, but the dog was so sweet, and a good pet for Mom and Dad. So I could not bear to let him go. He got along really good with Max and Thor. Since we had Skippy when we got Thor as a puppy he really believed that he was the alpha male! Until Thor was 3 times his size. But they always played gently
Mom and dad's state college home. It was about 1/4 mile to the YMCA, and Dad used to go there in the mornings before Mom got up. We also went to the Athletic Club when it was open, then transitioned to the Y.
I think top is one of Billy's Texas houses, at least before he fixed it up. Bottom is Mom and the jack russel.
Mom. Mom with Billy. Billy and Dad with Dad's plane. Once Dad and I flew to Canada, picked up Billy, and flew to a nice lakes for fishing. I just went along for the ride.Bottom is Dad on Billy's ranch
Mom on Billy's farm, Billy's girls, bottom is echo Lake Lodge, which Billy owned for a few years and which unfortunately burned down years ago.
