New Grandson


No matter how many times you witness the birth of a child, it never ceases to be just the most amazing and wonderful gift from God there could ever possibly be. I had that pleasure again this past Thursday (October 4, 2007) when my son Patrick and his wife Ann became proud parents for the first time.

Parker Alexander Ross (5lbs 12oz) was a few weeks early but thankfully, mother and son are both doing great. As you can see, Parker has a full head of wavy black hair, he's pink as a bunny and as beautiful a baby as there ever was. You can't tell from the photo but he's also got really big feet. Parker gets that from his daddy whose birth I remember to this day. Pat was a pretty baby too, but what I'll never forget is how big Pat's feet seemed to me at the time. It's odd the things that stick with you and that you never forget. Parker's birth will certainly be one of them. And we're looking forward to many years of watching him grow up and prosper.

50th Anniversary

This past May my wife and I celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary. The time has passed quickly but it certainly doesn't seem like 50 years. Like most, we've had our ups and downs in fifty years, but on the whole have been blessed with good health, three fine sons and nine grandchildren. Looking forward to the next chapter.
