LETTERS FROM THE PAST

This blog is to honor those who have come before us. These are family letters that I have had for years and wanted to be able to share them with family. It's an interesting way of knowing how life was in the past.

LETTERS FROM THE PAST

Myron F Taylor with 3 of his buddies in 1952. Over the last 20 years I've been working on our family letters. Letters that have been passed down. Including letters from my parents to my great-grandmother. Every letter was saved by my great grandmother and grandmother. I hope someday to either print them or give them to a museum. I am copying the letters–not being able to photocopy all of them. Each letter is in script. I know today very few can read them. I hope you enjoy them.

Barb Unknown '82

Christmas ‘83

 

Hi – Merry Christmas from Minnesota. Was such a lovely surprise to get a phone call from Chris last winter. He & Bud had quite a chat judging from all the news bud relayed to me. Great to hear.

We’re all just fine. Our life has changed a bit since Kathy graduated in June. She started at Minnesota State U in Sept. It’s about 75 mi SW of us. Has been getting home every 2nd or 3rd weekend so don’t miss her too much.

Bud is working Sat thru Mon. 12 hour mid shift. Works in the computer room & loves it. (I call it retirement!) Gives him lots of time to party during the week.

Shel is at Northern Telecom. A computer firm west of Mpls. Seems to be doing well just started selling Amway products etc. p.t. She sounds so optimistic about it.

Val works for Metro WW Comm. Also, but in St. Paul. Has been there 5 ½ yrs. & likes it very much & doing well.

I worked p.t. at a garden & apple orchard about a mile up the road from us. The season just ended and I miss it – really enjoyed it.

Still have 2 leagues & occasional volunteer work.

My folks are just great, both retired now & loving it. They go to Oregon for a few months after xmas. Dad started golfing last year & just addicted to it.

Hope this finds you all well.

Blessed Christmas & Great ‘84

 

Love Barb
