Grandma, Grandpa and the boys staying with us on Avalon when they first moved to Michigan.

Spending holidays at the Ursuline house. Grandma’s fried carrots, cinnamon buns, and cookies with Hershey kisses inside.

Grandma chasing us girls through the house acting like she was going to spank us with a spatula (we and grandma laughing).

Grandpa’s airplanes.

Musgo days (everything in the fridge has to be eaten ‘cuz it musgo today!)

Summers in Jackson, going to the creamery, driving around in the golf cart, sitting around the camp fire talking, roasting marshmallows, and laughing.

Family reunions in Jackson.

Grandpa’s shish kabobs.

Fishing with Grandpa.

Grandpa’s hugs.

My grandparents were the best. I love them, and miss them very much.

I have many fond memories of my Uncle Buss. Why, Uncle Buss bought me my OWN first bottle of pop! At the time, our families were on vacation in Canada and we all had a wonderful time. It was during this same trip that he taught me how to shuffle cards.

Uncle Buss made shish-ka-bob better than anyone I know. He also introduced me to Filet-Mignon during a family gathering at his house. Hamburger never tasted quite the same after that experience. :)

Why, it was Uncle Buss who gave me the nickel to put in the slot machine during a family gathering. Believe it or not, I hit the jack-pot with that nickel!

I will never forget the lovely time we had with Buss and Virginia when they came to visit us on the way back to Jackson a few years ago. Uncle Buss spent most of his time baking so many delicious goodies for us to enjoy. I have been told that he came by his talent naturally....His mother was a wonder baker, too.

I especially liked Uncle Buss's no-bake cookies, cinnamon rolls, and brownies.
No one makes them like Uncle Buss! I think of him when I use the recipes that he gave to me when he was here.

Our sincere thanks to Rick for keeping the family informed of how Buss and Virginia are doing. Aunt Virginia, you continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Suzy

Dad was my Dad since I was 16, starting when I was away at school and later when I lived in many different places during my 28 year career in the Air Force. He also became the Dad to a Finnish daughter-in-law in 1977. We took advantage of many opportunities over the years to visit Dad and Mom in Oxnard and in Jackson, Michigan; and Dad and Mom visited us when we lived in Las Vegas, Phoenix, Washington DC, and even in Italy.

When I retired from the Air Force in 2001, Tepa and I moved to Finland and we made plans for Dad and Mom’s long-awaited visit to Helsinki, and that trip finally happened in 2003 (and again in 2005). Of course, Dad was in his element baking cinnamon rolls, grilling shish-ka-bobs, fishing, and bowling—proving in Finland that he could do anything anywhere!

He was a great husband to our Mom and a great father to me—and to Tepa. We loved him and we miss him.
