This is a forwarded message From: .... valentine53179 Sometimes the weirdest things happen, but they happen for a reason... I was standing at the kitchen sink removing a soup label. And to mind came Harlow, who had asked on list about labels for a grandchild for a school project. I sent him all I had. I had sent him a few Cadberry Eggs a few Easters ago... So today, this day, I went searching to see if there was a recent email from our friend on a list or webpage somewhere...... but at the top of the results page, this notice: "Harlow Stillings" a MEMORY LANER Harlow C. Stillings, 90, of Hutchinson, Minn., born and raised in Valley City, N.D., passed away Feb. 23, 2011 at Abbott Northwest Heart Hospital in Minneapolis. A private visitation by the family was held Thursday, Feb. 24, at the Hantge Funeral Chapel.

Now that really makes me think. I know many of my family members worked for the ice works in Detroit Lakes on Detroit Lake and many many tons of ice was picked up every winter. But i knew the difference between lake ice and house ice Thank God for that!! Believe our ice came in on a freight train tho i have no idea how long it keeps that way unless dry ice was used on it with saw dust. Know my grandfather and father used to get ice off St Clair lake and stored it in an old granery filed with hay bales, gunny sacks, saw dust plus one other thing but cannot remember it. But never knew what they used it for unless they froze meat!! Should have asked them tho i probably did but i forgot it and that is strange because i remember almost every thing from my youth!! Viola.
This sure brought back the memories!!!! I would like to have one of these but am afrid that it is a little beyond my budget.

I'm lucky that I have a good long term memory as far as growing up is concerned....Not everyone thinks reminiscing about the past is good...I think it's the best thing going....I'm glad you also have happy memories....I was sick a lot growing up and Daddy helped take care of me, so we were close...I was also always saying weird and funny things, and he liked that. If I'd known he was going to die of Leukemia when I was almost 10 years old I would have spent even more time with him....Jeannie T ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Wed, 13 Apr 2011 15:16:57 -0700 "Louise Valine" <antique1931@saber.net> writes: > Speaking of mothers, my mother has been gone since in the 1970's, as > my dad since 1969.

Speaking of mothers, my mother has been gone since in the 1970's, as my dad since 1969. I noticed the neighbors last Sunday sitting out in the yard watching the horses. The neighbors mother was visiting on Sunday. Her husband has been gone a few years. I thought, I hope they are enjoying this time, as I would give any thing to be sitting visiting with my mother and dad.I don't think you ever get over the loss, after all you were once part of her, and your dads making. My mother had been told she shouldn't have any more after my three brothers, but I came along six years later. Don't think it was an intentional thing, but here I was the only girl after three boys. So as you can imagine even being depression time I was the apple of their eye and my brothers always helped take care of me. Just never knew any thing different than playing with my brothers. I played with dolls, but also cowboys and Indians. Now they are all gone but I have nothing but good memories, even though one of my brothers was kind of a stinker at times. When it comes down to the nitty gritty you have to forgive and forget and I'll never regret going to see him in his last years and him and his wife coming to visit towards the end. I took off work to go to see him for the last time before his death a couple mo. later. I had talked to my sis in law the night before and I went in to work the next morning and just told the manager of that dept. I was going. I didn't ask if I could, because I figured I was going no matter if I got fired. I had just lost my older brother a mo. or so before. But I didn't get fired, and he was gone about a mo. later. It is hard when you leave knowing that is the last time you are going to see your brother, or any family member. But time passes and you always have the memories, I still sometimes think I should pick up the phone and let my mom know what is going on with one of the kids. Of course that passes fast. But it is just that moment you think that. Camping we always talk about them and the fun times. Now with the sons new trailer it isn't exactly camping like they camped with a tent and before that just putting blankets under a pine tree. There are always the memories, memories. Well I had better close here before things get to sentimental. I wonder some times having a good childhood about the people that don't and there are some now days that things are really bad for the kids. What kind of memories do they have, alot of times there isn't any love there, just abuse. I am so thankful my childhood wasn't like that. Louise
Sully, What a wonderful thing you wrote-it is so true. I tell my beautiful Mother I love her and that she is so lucky to have all her children around her all the time to enjoy her. We all love to bring her little things she enjoys, she loves flowers, so we all take turns bringing her fresh flowers-she has come back from near death so well since last August when the doctors told us to kiss her good by for the last time-she rallied back and continues to do well! It is so sad that her legs do not work well and her eyesight is nearly gone but her love of life and family keep her going! I also think what will I do without her-I see her almost every day and talk to her on the phone several times a day----I just hope when she goes she can go in her sleep and not suffer a painful death . Helen
I was just thinking the other day, one of Gods blessing is that we don't live FOREVER. When my mother died, she had loss a eye, she loss a leg, and she had forgotten how to get happiness out of life. I loved her more than my own life, but she wasn't a happy person anymore. She had been ill so much over the last five years of her life, had suffered much, she had given up so much of what she was, most of her choices had been taken away. She went from one illness to another, she didn't complain a lot, but being her daughter I knew. I think it is worse to watch a loved one die, than for the person who is suffering. I look back now and think I should have told her, she was not ALONE, that all those who loved her were suffering with her. I was with her in the ICU has she lay dying, she looked up behind her at the wall, and said, "yes I hear you" she was talking to someone beyond the grave. Just before she died she seem comforted, more calm than she had been in days, and sure of what the future would bring. As I write this there are tears in my eyes, I miss my mother today, as much as I did when I first knew there would be no more telephone calls, no holding her hands, no more telling her little funnies that would make her laugh. But this I do know, she is in a better place, with her Lord, and she has a big smile on her face, for she again young, whole, and with everyone she loved and enjoyed. Sully
