Re: Judi!!: reply to Terri

Hi Terri,

We left our grandkids behind in Georgia with their mom and Dad. remarried

about 3 years ago, so she has four 6-year olds (her triplets plus stepson) and

one 9-year old. We miss them, but it was time for us to start enjoying our

retirement. Don't know how many years the Lord will give us together, and we

plan to enjoy them to the fullest.

The church we're part of now is the one we were married in 33 years ago, and

very active and growing, with older members and younger members. I started a

prayer shawl ministry this past spring, and we also make blankets for Project

Linus. Even with his Parkinson's, Ron plays handbells in the choir (he just

shakes the bell a little vigourously sometimes) and he also helps make blankets.

He is going to start visiting homebound members soon.

We play golf as often as the weather and our energy levels allow, and I try to

get to the pool at our apartment complex nearly every day.

How are you doing these days?

Judi
