Hello George

I am so glad you are back writing in the Community Voices newspaper.  That paper is not the same without your bits of advice and wisdom.  Love all the write ups you’ve done!  Keep up the good work!

I’m now looking forward to getting that paper again.

From a faithful reader…..

Hi Folks just thought I would let you know that my column is in this week in the North Bay Nugget.  It is a tale about my old Dad in his journey through life.  It’s called,  Old Dad And His Journey Through Life.  Pick up a copy and enjoy.  Talk Soon.

Well in my stories I write a lot about Jennie,  my horse that I grew up with. We had a lot of good times for sure. I came across this picture on the net. It’s not my Jennie but real close. The only difference would be that Jennie had two white stockings on her front legs instead of the picture here. But everything else is the same and I got to tell you it sure brings back memories when I look at her. Thought I would share. Talk Soon

I never miss your column. Love it. Reminds me of my Grandfather Nicholas.
 A gentle hard working orderly person who never wasted a thing in
his life and could make me a whistle or a toy or a very useful item out of
something he knew the exact where-abouts-of. He went overseas during World
War I, and the only stories I remember him telling were in relation to the
kindly and appreciative people he met and the countryside. He raised a
wonderful family of 5 after his wife died in child-birth. Mom was the oldest
and had to quit school at the age of 13 to stay home with her siblings. You
are so right. It WAS a hard life, but those people will never be forgotten.
Thanks for keeping their memories alive.  Elva.
