Got  double  post  from the  nice Lady.

Double  the pleasure, Ellen .   Day I chewed  on Paul, wife  said  was “pretty  hard.” Telling  him I was still good  to go y’day I said  he  was  near  ruining  my  marriage and  costing  me  friends right  and left. I know we’re  strong as  ever  and  any  fall off  wayside  weren’t  good travel passengers  to begin. I HAVE been here  before. Pudding  box says  “let  gel”  and  best  advice  in  B Crocker’s. Thing about  family? Wrote youngest  ( 14 years )  aunt  after uncle’s  funeral in   Jan 1986
 
Doris, a  strong  family  person

Family  ties  are  strongly  rooted,
sunk in  stone  and  learned  since  birth.
Family life   grows  convoluted
spread  like  winds  across  the  earth.
There  are  times  the  family  gathers,
sometime  joyous, as  often sad.
These  are  trials  the  family  weathers:
share  the  good  means  share  the  bad.
Through it  all the  thought’s imparted,
family  gone and  family  grown,
that  family  love is  open- hearted
and one  is  never  quite  alone! 

And , Ellen ? that simple   stuff, as I found,   gets  you  through a  war! Mine  operations? Piece  O’ Cake! Called  standfast, be  there  when called  on to assist.  Don
