We drove to Perry Hall to Linda's house to pick up Marie to visit Uncle Louie at ST. Joseph's Hospital in Towson, Md. He went in the ER yesterday; he hasn't been feeling well and has lost 25 pounds. They found lesions in his pancreas that are cancerous and have spread to his liver. He is the baby in the family at only 82 years of age; but he had a pretty bad stroke in October when we were here last. He has gotten so frail, much more than NaNa. We took Marie to eat at Popeye's, then drove her home. Linda had a copy of our family tree on the table for me. It goes back pretty far.
Tonight we met with Auntie Karen and her husband, Gary Knights. They live where it used to be a pasture for horses above 97 on a high hill. It is very windy at the top and it is still cold here. I believe it has been in the upper 30s and lower 40s at night, which is really good sleeping weather. It is a good thing we didn't bring Greta up here and to fly to Montana. She isn't used to cold weather.
It was fun to spend time with Karen again and find out all that has occurred with her kids. Dawn has 2 girls and 1 boy: Natalie, , and Frank. Richie has a little girl who is close in age to Sofia called , and is the spitting image of Richie. Jason lives in Alexandria, Va, has 2 kids: Caitlyn and. And one on the way at the end of May. They have all been very successful with good jobs and wonderful families. Gary has 5 children; so there are many grandchildren. We ate at Olive Garden.
