Holiday Update

	My sister Susan visited us for a couple of days this past week.  Though her stay was all too short, we certainly enjoyed having her here.  She was so nice to fly out from Colorado.
Sister Susan and me
My health is better than it has been in several months.  I have more energy and am even gaining a little weight. In fact, we’re looking forward to a Caribbean cruise with my parents in January and staying in Florida thru February.  In March we will go to San Jose, CA to see daughter Elizabeth, her husband Jayson, our grandson Ian and new baby ??

Julie and I wish all of you Happy Holidays and a wonderful year ahead.

Thanks To All

My Thanksgiving blog post generated quite a response.  Many of you made comments on the blog or phone calls, and many more sent letters or e-mails.

Your thoughts were overwhelming and heartwarming.  Many of your messages brought tears to my eyes. Thanks to all of you -- your support means more to me than you can know.
