Good Evening! I think it is time to add some new things to the BLOG! I wanted to post some pictures of my Dad, my siblings and Grandpa and the kids. So here goes. It has been over 4 months (Jan 8) since Dad went home to be with his Lord. Makes me wonder what he is doing! Praising the Lord and Singing? Telling Mom everything that has happened in the last 19 years? Praying for our family that we all join them someday? We don't know, but we do know they are in a place of no more tears or sorrow. Our sympathy to our friend Dorothy. Her 95 year old mother, Anna Bontrager, also left this earth last Friday night. Being at the funeral and burial brought sad (yet happy!) memories to my mind.
The picture of Dad by himself was taken at a Shoes For Mongolia fundraiser that Shannon sponsored in Columbus. The one of us outside was taken in July, 2006 at a Miller Family Reunion. (Karla, Shirley, Dad, Marlene Keith, Julie, Ken and Ethel) I really like that picture and am glad we took it even if we "older" ones had a hard time getting up off the ground!
Dad had banks made of the cherry wood from the Kandel Farm for all the kids and grandkids.
Shannon, Michael and Joe with Grandpa after getting their banks. The last picture was taken by a longtime friend of Dad's at the funeral lunch. I am glad we took that one also.
