Kathleen, Hope you have a great Christmas. Enjoy all of those children and grandchildren while you can. Ours are scattered all over the country. From Florida to North Carolina to Virginia to California to Missouri to Nevada to Colorado to Tennessee to Indiana to Michigan. It's been since 1986 since all of our eight kids were together. Even then not all of their spouses or kids were able to get to their grandmother's funeral. Since then we've added several grandkids and thirteen great-grandkids. Some we've never seen except in pictures. Patricia
