Sunday, October 20, 1963 The Frances Hubbard Diaries


October 20, 1963
Sunday - beautiful day, 70's.  Girls and I went to church and sunday school.  LaVerne and Roberta here for dinner.  Dougie went back to Va.  Wayne and Linda took Carol to Oneonta after her coat she left at Joyce Glen's party.  Clifford and Rudy called in pm.  Earl had crushed foot and broken leg from horse falling on him.
Comment: Lots going on, visitors, travel, serious accident. Uncle Earl was 53, being born in 1910, and had exactly 4 years, 6 months and 14 days to live before he died of untreated heart disease. I vaguely remember him in a cast but remember a lot else about him. I think many of you have heard it but I think it's worth repeating, my tribute to Uncle Earl: Hubbard Music Mountain: Uncle Earl Born August 1, 1910, Died May 4, 1968

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
