Donald...Our families go back to beyond the four generations you represent and at least to your father Tapani who accompanyed my grandfather Oscar to Finland in the early 1900's to witness
the exhuming of grandfather's brother for insurance purposes......I suppose you will find out if there is an 8 point buck in Heaven come November.....perhaps we can talk about that in 20 years or so....so long and may God Bless your family.
Dear Barb and family,
We extend to you our sympathies. Your mom and dad were the salt of the earth. They knew the meaning of family and hard work to provide for their family and all those precious foster children. They lived their lives as God wanted them to....giving and giving until their coffee cups were overflowing. We are happy you and your siblings were such a wonderful part of God's plan for your family. Enjoy the memories, laugh and cry. Be sure to hug each other. Warmly and with tears,
Lowell and Barb Hanshaw
