Happy 90th Birthday Mother
 
As a toddler... about 1921...
 
Mother & me... 1945

When Daddy proposed...

Mother said she wanted 2 girls, 2 years apart...

no boys!!

Daddy said, "I can do that"

and so she married him...

and she got her wish!!

 
Probably 1937 or 1938...
 
and then she met her prince...
 
Grand Island High School graduation - 1937
 
October 19, 1941 married in Grand Island, NE
 
Mother with Daddy 1942...
 
Mother & my baby sister... 1947
 
My sis, Mother & me... Christmas 2006...

 

God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.

1980
 
2005

Soon 5 grandchildren were added to the family...

 

Much too soon they grew up...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Christmas 1968...

Mother was called Grammy by her  grandchildren...

 

Now 4 great-grandchildren have joined the family...

 

The great-grandchildren call her G.G.....

(for Great-Grandmother)

Grandmas never run out of hugs or cookies.                                        --- Author Unknown

 

And oh how yummy  Grammy's cookies were... some liked the oatmeal raisin best, others liked her sugar cookies.  She would bake you a tin of cookies and send them with your Mother when she came to visit or mail them to you at Christmas.

Thanksgiving 2007...

                         MOTHER

 

You filled my days with rainbow lights,

Fairy tales and sweet dream nights,

A kiss to wipe away my tears,

Gingerbread to ease my fears.

You gave the gift of life to me

And then in love, you set me free.

I thank you for your tender care,

For deep warm hugs and being there.

I hope that when you think of me

A part of you you'll always see....

Well, my SISter, this will be an impossible act to follow. Well done, as usual. There are at least three photos of the early years that I have never seen... When did you confiscate them? :) Thanks for putting this together. Our family (kids and grandkids) will love the tribute. Happy Birthday, Mother, and lots of love on your 90th. Oh, if we all can be so lucky! God has truly blessed our family with your love! Love, love, love you, Jerri

Happy Birthday Juleen and many more....I remember when I was small, coming to visit you and your daughters when we came to NE. I always felt soo shy and wanted to hide. By the end of the visit all would be well and we would be playing together. And of course those visits always included lots of great food and card playing and laughter. Thanks for the memory Juleen....love and hugs Marilyn Kowalski (Erlene and Ray's oldest dtr, grnd dtr of Hugo and Olga
