And, yes ...Thanks for the feeback Katey and Kathy. And, yes I do remember you Katey. You were up in Lancaster for the all school reunion if I recall. Thank your mother again for a contribution to the flower fund on behalf of your father Larry.<BR/><BR/>Kathy, I am sure the cousins will have many stories about your grandmother and her unique personality at subsequent get togethers. I'm glad the family appreciated the effort. In any event, I think Auntie Ella would be happy.<BR/><BR/>FredFred from the far Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05894949109753653387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742183356993925953.post-7023447164299684682007-03-31T21:33:00.000-05:002007-03-31T21:33:00.000-05:00Thanks for including me on your blog mailing.

I know that my dad "Bill" would also like to say thank you. <BR/><BR/>I personally loved the hams and the story behind them. A special thanks for keeping grandmas wish and the story alive. Grandma was smiling down on all of you! <BR/><BR/>Kathy Barta (Antoski)<BR/><BR/>P.S. please keep me on the mailing list for your trip.

In any event, I think the story is fairly accurate, and we now can watch and see if any historic revisionist intercede.<BR/><BR/>FredFred from the far Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05894949109753653387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742183356993925953.post-73101431022333337862007-03-21T06:49:00.000-05:002007-03-21T06:49:00.000-05:00Uhh. . . .dad (AKA Grandpa Jerome) . . .as I heard...Uhh. . . .dad (AKA Grandpa Jerome) . . .as I heard the story - FROM you - there was definitely profanity.

I don't remember using bad language, but I do remember telling Ella in no uncertain terms, there would be ham at her funeral.<BR/><BR/>By the way, thanks for putting this all together for the cousins.<BR/><BR/>The flowers are beautiful and your are to be commended on the hams. I would hope that all had enough to eat today and that you did not run out of ham, that would be a sin.<BR/><BR/>The blog is great, keep up the good work.<BR/><BR/>Your Cousin<BR/><BR/>AKA Grandpa JeromeGrandpa Jeromehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10107761199683782387noreply@blogger.com
