Carolyn Jean isn’t doing well.

Aunt Lolly sent this to me yesterday:

David Schlichtmann called this morning to let us know that Carolyn Jean is in St. Mary’s hospital.  She fell at home, and they have been doing all kinds of tests to find out the trouble, but have found none so far.  They think it may be her kidneys, and the cancer. She is in room 310.  I ask David if I could contact you about putting this information on the family web site. He said I could. For now just say(Carolyn Jean is not doing well, and prayers for her are requested.)

I can’t find an address for St. Mary’s hospital, new address, but I know it’s on Mission  Drive,  I’m sure she would enjoy card’s.

Aunt Lolly’s Story (part 11)

When I was small, I spent many hours sitting on Daddy’s lap combing his hair. He had lots of patience and endured a lot. He taught us to play blind pitch, and then regular pitch. He played the harmonica and I played my drum sitting by the old wood stove in the wintertime.

On cold winter weekend nights, we would run upstairs where the peanuts and popcorn were laid out to dry on papers on the floor, dip up a big pan of peanuts and grab ears of popcorn and take them to the kitchen. We put the peanuts in the oven to bake and shelled the popcorn. We would pop a big dishpan of popcorn. Then Mahlon, Cleo, Naomi and I would play cards or Monopoly till midnight.
