Monday, cool,50's, cloudy in pm. I made chili sauce, plum jelly and started relish. Did some ironing and wrote to Marilyn. Vern Russell broke into Russell VanAken's and took gun and shells.
Comment: Russelll VanAken lived about a 1.5 miles from us and made his living on junk auto and equipment parts and fire wood. He lived like a hermit in a one-room shack that he built himself and ate mostly Wheaties for breakfast, lunch and dinner. He very rarely wore a shirt even in the winter and we would often see him tan and lean working around his extensive junkyard or his home-made buzz saw powered by a pulley and belt off the rear, tireless rim of a jacked up derelict car.
From Susan About Grandpa's Death: This is very much worth a response. I loved Grandpa. He would drop by the house often. He always had a soft smile across his closed lips. He was quiet, and gentle, and never in a hurry. He was straight, and lean, and for the most part health. I remember the wedding of Louise and Grandpa. He was very happy with her. He built the house that they lived in. And, he loved his grandchildren!
