You know  I  received an email last night  from an old high school friend  with  some old photos attached......asking me if this was my  family  line....  I went to the web site and just felt so many emotions  rolling all at once  I can not  even begin to find the  words  to describe...  Let me tell you  the  ART  of the  internet  has been wonderful for me in finding  my family  on both sides....The  above photo  is of my dad  and  his sister......Taken in PA.  I am guessing  about 1922.  My dad was  born late 1920

 This photo  is of my  late  Uncle  Don and   his father  Homer.....I never got to meet  this family...talked to Uncle  Don many times  as a child on the  phone  but never  got to meet him....and  to see the family resemblance looking at my grandfather  in this  photo amazed me  how much  my own father  looked like that  and  stood  like that as well!

This  photo   was called  the  Grove  Brothers....the  man on the far  right  Would be  my  great grandfather..... He passed away in 1945.....  My dad was  discharged from the  Army  in  1945. Man I wish  I could find  some old family  journals or diaries......

My dad  rarely spoke  on his  family...........I do understand it now  why  but  never did  as a child  and in the  last   seven years  I have been trying to  do  some  documentation  on  family  history  and  a family  book and  each  time  I think  I have  it  about   whipped....something new  comes  my way!

Blessings to all~
