When I was going through some bags and boxes of stuff from Grandma’s house, I kept finding christmas letters from the Callahans (They own the next farm over). I think Grandma must have saved about 20 of them. I scanned this one then took them all over the the Callahan’s place and gave them to Mel. I figured they might be interested in rereading letters from 30 some odd years ago.
I can’t imagine writing out Christmas letters by hand.

I left home in 1953. There were people named smith living on that farm,then the Shellbargers moved onto that farm and then it sold to the callahans Denny Spaulding also lived there early on. You always had very nice neighbors.

Mel and Rose Callahan allowed me to let Evelyn Shellabarger explore the farm two years ago. She loved doing it, and brought back a lot of memories for her. We were so fortunate to have Grace, Jake and Evelyn Shellabarger for our neighbors. She made our lives bearable and fun. Mother and Daddy thought a lot of her, too.
Aunt Lolly says
Mel and Rose are fine people. Mother was lucky to have them for neighbors.
