Notes - family / Winston

         You are at Pine Hill Lakes Park facing west under a cloudy sky waiting for Carol to complete her walk before you head the rest of the way home from Kim and Paul’s. You arrived at Delaware about ten after eleven, chatted a bit then called Gayle who said she would meet you three for lunch at Max and Erma’s at the Polaris Shopping Centre area. After a good lunch Kim went home and Gayle took her car (you followed) to Uncle John’s and saw his new one bedroom apartment in the care facility of the Methodist Senior Center on River Road in Dublin. Uncle John looked well but had had a small stroke in July so he has some short-term memory problems. He has a small kitchen, a living room with four windows facing west, a bedroom that holds a queen-size bed, a good size bathroom with a double sink and a large shower, a good size clothes closet plus a walk in closet that is almost as large as what you and Carol have in the bedroom. The ceiling is white, the walls a pale yellow and the carpet peach colored, plus a white painted cabinet with high book shelves to hold a 48” TV, his DVR, Bose radio and VCR. After leaving you got caught in early Friday traffic just south of Columbus. Otherwise, you had a good car trip. Carol decided to stop now to do her walk, and is. – Amorella

         1729 hours. We had a good day. Uncle John looks well but he is having a few memory problems, more than we have noticed before. He is 91. Kim is having Thanksgiving this year, which is very kind of her since Mary Lou usually does the honors, she and Paul inherited Mary Lou’s large dining room furniture – it is a fitting memory to use it for this family Thanksgiving. Here comes Carol.

         Carol is on the phone with her sister, Linda – both are catching up on each other’s family news. Later, orndorff. Post. - Amorella

         You watched NBC News on the DVR and afterward Carol went up to read while you found  “Winston Churchill – Walking with Destiny” (2010) on Netflix.  - Amorella

Winston Churchill: Walking with Destiny (2010)

Plot Summary

Walking With Destiny highlights Churchill's years in the political wilderness, his early opposition to Adolf Hitler and Nazism, and his support for Jews under threat by the Nazi regime. As historian John Lukacs explains, Churchill may not have won the War in 1940, but without him, the War most certainly would have been lost. Sir Martin Gilbert, historical consultant for the film and Churchill's official biographer, adds that had Churchill's warnings about Nazi Germany's racial policies towards Jews been heeded in the early 1930's, the Holocaust may never have occurred. The film examines why Winston Churchill's legacy continues to be relevant in the 21st Century and explores why his leadership remains inspirational to current day political leaders and diplomats.
