It's been a long couple of month's. Sorry I've been away from the blogging world for so long. As most of you have heard my Dad passed away this month and even though he's been in alot of pain for a long time, it still hurts to see him pass. Having the gospel in my life has sure made it easier to cope with though. Knowing that through the attonement we all will be together some day gives you something to look forward to. He was the last of his 5 siblings to pass away. His oldest brother passed away just a few weeks before my dad did. I can picture them all right now running around together on the farm. He always loved talking about when he was a kid in Ohio and walking through 10 feet of snow to get to school. they would have to build tunnels to walk through. He once saved his little sister's life by pulling her out of the ice once too. He always talked about spending hours in the kitchen with his mom making homemade noodles and pies, and jelly. He loved to cook. He was actually the cook in the family at my house growing up. He really enjoyed it. Everything I know about cooking I owe to him. Unfortunately he never kept a cook book, and I really havn't either. I'll have to work on that before I forget it all. He was really good at just making things up. It always tasted great. He was a great man and will be greatly missed.

Thanks Shirley. I learned some things I didn't know about Dad. You need to write it all down, and the recipes too. Be sure to give us copies. I am so sorry for your loss. We all miss him so much! We love you!
