We really enjoyed spending time with Roger and Sarah Smith and it was another instance of "it's a small world". As we talked, we discovered that she knew my cousin, and she stayed at her house with my godparents when her brother was born. When I remembered her maiden name, I also remembered that our brothers were friends, when they were young. It's not as though we needed things to talk about, because we're both Mercy nurses, and both worked at the hospital at one time. Actually, it was like old home week for me too-it was amazing to see how many of those Loras guys married Mercy nurses. Of course, it just proves how smart they are!
I had to put Bill Kamps' picture on-he's the cute guy with the beard. He was my partner twice playing euchre and it was an experience that is beyond description. I think he went alone with one trump and suggested I should "brush up on my euchre skills". It was a hoot! It's hard to believe he's a retired judge! (If he looks at this, I hope he can't figure out how to make a comment!)
Sorry this is fuzzy, but I was too close. Even Fr. told stories- he recently had a cornea transplant and he can't see very well yet. He told the guys they all looked good to him!
This was taken too fast, but it's the two artists from the class-being creative.
Don wasn't the only one that had a good time-they all did, including the women. First they talked about having the next one in 25 years, but as they thought about it, they decided five years might be a good idea. May they all live for their 75th!
