Aunt Jerry and Uncle Jack still live in the house across the street from where Grandma Roa used to live. My memories of trips to Ogden always involve seeing them, or seeing my cousin Cindy, and/or Cindy's kids Jackie and DJ. In addition to her duties as a daughter, mother, wife, grandma, and now a great-grandma, I remember Jerry's artistry as a beautician, a crafter, a decorator, and her many endeavors as an entrepreneur. Some things don't fall far off the family tree.

HI! Kid, HAPPY 40th DAY YOU WERE BORN! Have a great day, and wonderful year.
I know you wanted pics and memories of your youth. I have no pics to contribute, but I am sure you'll have plenty, before the year is gone.
My memory is from the day you were born. We were at Uncle Jack's parents' home, celebrating his sister Deb's birthday, when we got the call you had arrived. We were really excited to think we would be celebrating not only Deb's B-Day, but yours also. Oh how time slips away from us.
LUV YA, Aunt Jer
