Going To Visit Uncle Bill...

Aunt Sherry invited all my sisters and I to come visit Uncle Bill. I posted that they couldn't be with us on the 4th of July. Uncle Bill had a surgery two days before. He actually passed on the operating table, but the doctors  revived him. He is coming back strong. But up set that he will not be able to drive the school bus this year. He just closed his barber shop, where he was a barber for over 40 years. Uncle Bill would cut hair after picking up and dropping off kids. Then close his shop up in time to go get the children from school. He loved doing that job. Retirement is very hard for some people . Take care and enjoy this day. xo

  1. I am so glad he is recovering and doing well. Too bad he won't be able to drive the bus this year though. I am sure that is a huge disappointment for him. What good looking family you have there! xo Diana

  5. I think it makes retirement so much harder when you have to do it because of scary medical conditions. Hoefully he will find new things that he is interest in. So glad that he is okay. HE looks like he is doing good. How scary.
