This week my thoughts have been with my first, second family. This family was a part of my life from my very first memory to about age 14. They lived across the street from my family and their kids; Bob, Jim, and Cathy, were some of my sister’s and my first playmates…. During that time, I really always thought of them as siblings.
Here we all are:
Next to my cat and my sister, Bobby was my first best friend. He had fun boy toys which I loved playing with like Tinker Toys and Lego's.
Sadly Mil passed on last week, after poor health for several years.
A smile comes to my face whenever I think about these memories I share with this former neighbor family- they will forever be in my heart.
Here are pictures from Cathy's wedding in the mid 80's. The last time I was with them all together.
