Well, the summer has proven to be a busy time. I do dislike the word "busy". People over use the word. Being busy is all relative. Let me rephrase things. I have been preoccupied with my children's activities and having equal fun to my hobby of genealogy.
In addition to the full load of kid activities, I have witnessed a few milestones for various family members. I had the privilege of attending a high school graduation party for my cousin (Borchers/Vienop side) and my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary celebration.
On a sad note, we lost my uncle on July 7th. Attending his memorial service was a wonderful way to honor his memory. Several people spoke about him. He had the family passion for genealogy. In fact, he had picked up the torch to blaze the trail in search of our Borchers and Vienop roots. His successes live on in many boxes at his home and also online. The real loss is that we will not see him again. At the age of 80, Herb Borchers, Jr. has passed on. Rest In Peace, Uncle Herb.
So, I share photos of the living, those who have passed, and the activities in my life this summer. I am very grateful for my close friends and family.
