I trust GOODWINW also known as Bill G. won't mind my telling you all that he and his bride became a GRAND PARENTS for the first time this past December 6th. A BOY.... Bill and I have shared some thoughts on this, and they are really happy for such. Their daughter is the mother. We have just one, and at 7 she is the WIND BENEATH OUR WINGS. Hang on Bill the ride is so SPECIAL.

Thanks, Dale. We are proud as peacocks about our new grandson, and even happier the our daughter and her husband live just up the street.

David William Barkman, 12/6/2004 really made our Christmas special. I was off work between Christmas and New Year which allowed my wife and I to help out our daughter and really spend time with the family.

We are really blessed.

Bill G

Well congratulations folks. That is just wonderful. What a great blessing for you.

GRANDPARENTS

Grandparents bestow upon their grandchildren
The strength and wisdom that time
And experience have given them.

Grandchildren bless their Grandparents
With a youthful vitality and innocence
That help them stay young at heart forever.

Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past with the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part...
