us in 2000. He calls us every Christmas. His grandfather
Alex Charlebois and mine- George Charlebois were brothers.
Deb, We often visited your house in my younger days. That is when you were really young. Age wise, I am between Arlan and Donnie. I remember one year your folks moved west for the winter. I think is was California or maybe Oregon? As I remember it was in the late 50’s. The next spring you guys were back on the Farm again. Gary
That is a great photo of your parents, Debbie. It brought back memories of our visits to see you guys when we were growing up. As you may know/remember your brother, Don, was a class mate of mine throughout high school. You are several years younger than me so my memory of you is of a pretty young girl. As I’m sure you also know we are second cousins – on my Dad’ side and your Mom’s side. Anyway, thank you for sharing that photo of your parents.

The Lady In The Car Behind Me…
| The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.
The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell. After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects. He said, ”I’m very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the ‘What Would Jesus Do’ bumper sticker, the ‘Choose Life’ license plate holder, the ‘Follow Me to Sunday-School’ bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally….I assumed you had stolen the car.” Priceless. |
