Talked to Clarence

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Hello Family,  Claremce called me this morning.  He is absolutely an amazing person. He sounded just great.  He said he is fine and is looking forward to the big one, 100.  He enjoyed his 99th birthday and many of the family were there.  He talked about many of them and always asked about all of you.  He was happy to hear about Jerome and Janet and their new baby, and then talked abut Duane Gels and Tim Thompson’s adopted children. I filled him in on me and other family happenings.  He always mentions he would like me to come up and stay there for they have a room I could use.  I told him maybe this summer Joan and I can make a trip up to visit him.   He sure enjoys his free csll on the computer.  He said there are 32000 games and he has done 29005 so far.  I believe he intends to do everyone of them.  He said he keeps on each one until he gets it.  Now that is deterination.  He does persevere.  It is always great to hear from him.  He ia a man to be admired.  He has done so many things in his life.  Well, just wanted to let you know about Uncle Clarence.     Love, Mombo

Molina

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

Dear Clan,  Molina is theirs.  Jerome called about 2:30 p.m. today.  They are in the Hotel,  have a cell phone and have Molina with them.  They got her at 9 this morning..  She is doing fine,  takes the bottle ok,  checked her,  thought she might have a temp, checked that,  probably just teething.  He said she is playing and  has her own personality.  He put the phone up to her ear and I talked to her and I could hear her babble at the other end.  Jerome said  she kept looking at the phone.   They have a cell phone and he gave me the # if we need it for an emergency.  He said it would be very expensive to call there.  Better for them to use the phone they got down there.  I asked about her name and Janet said they had it down to 3 and will decide by tomorrow.  Ha, first he said 2 and Janet said 3.  Connie is a very big help for she use to work at a care center and knows how to quiet babies down.  He said they got some video but lighting not good.  They are both very happy and excited.  What a wonderful Valentine’s Day for them and for all of us.  Thank you Lord Jesus for this special day.  Love to all.  Mombo/Grammo
