Seven Siblings and their spouses: These two pictures, taken at a gathering at Jim and Gerry's house in 1984, are the only ones I know that include all seven of Peter and Alma's children and their spouses. As I look at these pictures, I think what good role models we had for marriage and family. All seven children married and had children. Although all had their hard times, challenges and tribulations, none divorced. All maintained loving relationships with the larger family. We grandchildren were fortunate to be born into that loving circle. I think of this blog as one way to keep the circle unbroken.
