Reply to Deanna Bannerman….I am going to guess that your parents are married for 50+ years. Bob and Arlene had not aged much at all since high school. Which speaks well for a long marriage. I have seen them on two occasions a couple years ago, at the Dunseith Reunion and prior to our Alaska Cruise.

By the way, your Grandpa Ernest was a typical lone cop in a rough town about 1953 & 54. Those cops at that time never ever gave us poor ole hillbillies a hard time for staying up all night on Saturday night. They seemed to know that we only had one night a week to howl. Those were the days!!!

Bob and Arlene had a great sense of humor, I am convinced that that is what keeps people young. Best of luck to two great people. Gary Metcalfe

Neola,
I had no idea that you were going to have surgery. I must have missed it in Gary’s blogs. I’m so glad that everything went well and knowing you, you well be back
on your feet, as soon as the GOOD LORD will allow you to do so. Everything here in Chippewa Falls is doing good. We are getting colder weather and I’m still
trying to get use to the weather here. It is quite different than North Dakota and Wyoming.
You take care of yourself.

Sybil Johnson
