Mid-morning. You are at the McDonalds at the
corner of Weller and Montgomery Roads waiting for Carol who has the usual
yearly one to two hour tests at Bethesda North Hospital. Yesterday you spent
part of the time working on old photographs and talked to Aunt Ruthie. She and
Aunt Patsy are the only ones left to identify older family members.
I really need to get cracking on this. I found some more old
photos but I have another two large boxes to go through and there may be more
in the basement.
Here
is Aunt Ruthie's note:
Hi -
Grandma Schick (your
Grandmother) was born around Cheshire. None of that is there anymore.
Give me a little time and I will get the information. I know she was
around old Africa Road, but not sure just where. - I'll get in touch with
Glenna Gooding (Aunt Betty's daughter - my cousin who married Kenny Zarbaugh, retired coach at Otterbein)
and find out the particulars. - Glenna still lives in Lewis Center and one
of her daughters lives in Aunt Betty's old house on Lewis Center Road.
Glenna and Kenny built their house right next door many years ago and
they still live there. - Tony and I went to their 60th wedding
anniversary get together at their daughter's in Westerville (although Linda and
Paul live in Delaware County) sometime in August. It was small because
Kenny has not been too well, but Dr. Bill and Sheila were there. - A nice
family get together.
I'll be in touch. - We are
leaving for Florida on Friday or Saturday depending on the weather, but I will
have my laptop down there. - We stopped in to see Cathy and Tod (at Karen's
this year) on Christmas day and she did tell me just a little about Paul, but
nothing other than he might end up in Marion. Anyhow I'll get back to you
shortly.
Hugs,
A. Ruthie
