I wondered what to do for your birthday, since we are so far apart. Then I thought...She has been sending me pictures of me when I was a kid... Now mind you, I don't have any pictures *that* old, but I do have a few you may have forgotten about! Hope you enjoy!

This is Brenda! She was very young in this picture...maybe a senior, in Frenchtown High School.



This is her brother, Bill.



This is her sister Della...my mom.



Her job way back then was the school crossing guard. You know what they say about women in uniforms!



This was her car.



This is my first bike, which she bought for me in 1978.



Hey Brenda! Remember that mean joke you played on me where I thought my only gift was a glass chunk? Got the proof right here!



Now I know why most are wondering why I am in most of the pictures....oh well.....



Anyways, Brenda and I used to meet at an ACME Supermarket and go out for a day on the town. Funny how ACME and Friendly's are our favorite places to be. No wonder we had to go shopping at Fashion Bug Plus! I am still sitting here waiting..at the other end. WHERE ARE YOU!!!!!



Brenda, I am sorry we cannot be there for your birthday. But know that we love you and hold you near our heart and are in my thoughts every day. Have the best birthday ever.

Love....

Arlene, Aimee-Sue, Tim, Bubba, Willie, Maggie, Myrtle, Calypso, Rascal & Snowball.
