Photos

Through the Years...



Several of the Grandchildren (Joy and Adda's Great-Grandchildren) wanted to see photos of their Grandparent when they were little.

I have only one photo with all five siblings (Charles, Opal, Joy Jr, Juleen and Rex) in it when they were younger. Sadly poor exposure has created a glare across who we think might be Joy Jr. The tall girl is unidentified.


Rex and Juleen bottom left...
Opal above them...
Charles on the right


I do have several photos with two or even three of the children in them.
I will post them here, now.
More will be posted later in the individual stories of each one.

(remember... clicking on any photo will make it larger)

Then next three photos were taken in front of Juleen's house on Pleasant View Dr in Grand Island in September of 1980.

This was taken in Oct of 1985 at Opal's house in Kearney, NE.

And the last photo taken in June 2005 (20 & 25 years after the above pictures)...

Opal, Charles and Juleen
They do not look any older here than in the above photos...
You would never know they are 92, 93 & 86.

We should be so lucky!!
