    I try to imagine how many memories are laying behind this image, and I thank you for sharing this sweet moment of almost 30 years ago.

  10. I do, Viv. It’s been my hardest relationship by far, but I find the work incredibly worthwhile.

  12. I am really glad to know that it is so worth doing.. My folks passed several years ago. I had no chance to even broach the topic of my experiences, much less work them out..Oh well..I wasn’t ready anyhow.

  13. Lovely Family photo, my first thought innocence…We took the Gospel to the nations and little did we realize the cost that our kids would bare for that call..
