My Mom was born & raised in lower Michigan. She

clerk at The Souvenir Barn. She lost her husband & my father in September of 2000. They had been married 61 years. She
is a member of the Zion Luteran Church. She loves animals, she has two cats & two dogs. She also loves the Casino.

| Why is it...that all fish stories are about... |
|
| ...the one that got away? |
|
 |
| This is my Dad...Jack. |
|
| In the place he loved...Canada. |
My Dad's name is Jack & that is just what he was a "Jack
of all trades." There wasn't much he couldn't do & if there was...he'd figure out a way for it to be done. He was a big
man, he cut his own firewood right up 'til the end. He'd lift logs that men 10 years his younger couldn't begin to lift. He
was a healthy robust man 'til the day he passed away at 80 years of age. No-one could ever believe that he was that old. He
worked as an Operating Engineer for many years, he was also their, Mechanic. He loved Canada, he had a cabin there &
many friends. We all miss him very much.
