Gilbert Fassett Family Photo
Posted by Gwen Grimme Eltz (68): Spokane, WA
Gary – Since some readers remembered our uncle, Harry Fassett, I thought folks might be interested in seeing this photo of our Grandfather Gilbert Fassett with his sons.
Back Row: (l to r) Reuben, George, Harry, Andrew
Front Row: (l to r) Thomas, Grandpa Gilbert Fassett, Peter
Our aunt, Faith Parsley, lives in Wyoming; all of the other Fassett sisters–including our mother, Kathleen Grimme–are deceased. Cleora was married to Ted Pigeon (Thorne); Florence, to Leonard Cushing (Dunseith/Botttineau); Ruth, to Vern Berge (Souris), and Nellie, to Len Clayson (Great Falls, MT). Katharine was just a baby when she passed away. Many folks might remember Harry’s wife, Rachel, because she was a cook at the School of Forestry in Bottineau for many years.
Thanks to Susan (Fassett) Martin for writing such a complete summary of the family.

One connection was missed. Harry’s sister, Cleora, was married to my uncle, Ted Pigeon. Their children are Dean, Kenneth and Curtis (deceased) Bob and Beverly, Alva, Margaret, Renee and Lori. Sorry I may have misspelled some of the mames.

Correction from Dick Johnson that I got 2 minutes after sending yesterday’s blog.
Sorry about that Dick, so I am posting after the fact today. You know the old saying, better late than never.

Gary ,
I screwed up. Inez Hosmer is on the far left not right. I read this thing several times and still goofed. Can I get you to change that please?? Thanks!

Dinner at the Cebu Radisson this past Tuesday evening.
The guy standing to my right and his wife in the back center are an Indian couple from India. They are here living with their son who is a Senior Executive with the JP Morgan Chase company. We have become very close friends with this couple. There are no strangers in their lives. They easily make good lasting friendships with most everyone they meet. They are true Catholics faithfully practicing the teachings of their religion. Good honest people carring and very polite couple.
The guy to my left on the extreem right has his hand on his 12 year old daughters shoulder. His wife, her mother, is seated directly in front.
