You asked me a question a couple of days ago as to where I was/am now.? The answer is that I have been back in Grand Rapids since Christmas of '79.? I have been a widow for close to seven years now, but have a very full and happy life.? I've been very fortunate in that both of my brothers and my sister settled in Grand Rapids as well, so I have LOTS of family around me.? One out of my four daughters also lives in the area, only about five minutes from my house.? I have two daughters in the Indianapolis area and the fourth daughter lives in Colorado.?
I am a "west-sider" now, in the Wyoming area and I love it over here.? It's close to Rivertown and it's also that much closer to Lake Michigan, where we placed my husband's ashes at the end of the Grand Haven pier.? It's so much more pleasant to visit him there than in some cemetary.? And best of all, I'm only about three minutes from my church, where I spend a lot of my time.?

Okay. I'm one of the old Alger folks. I remember polio shots, eating Jello
out of the box, walking 8 blocks to school and, oh yes, Miss Wycoff.
