Family History-1971 – Eighteen06

Dorothy and Ron… and that’s the way we were! Trivia: At this point in the lanscaping we’d decided to allow the leaves to mulch the front yard instead of trying to fight growing grass (with all the shade from the two big maple trees). We tried developing a “forest floor,” as happens naturally in a shaded forest.

Fr. Leo Haigerty is announcing something.
Fr. Leo was a first-class human being with none of the “Pay, Pray, and Obey” Catholic tradition about him.

Chris receiving gift. “Bishop Nicholas” seems to have regained his focus… maybe because Leo H is directing, now.
