Rob; Does the Twin look the Same?

By


Rob, Pat just spent, what seemed to be a ridiculous amount of time rubbing, cursing and polishing his candelabra - since it arrived resembling a grayish amount of steel. We sat and discussed many topics while he rubbed and cleaned this item to this silvery finish. Rye and some German Kuemmerling were consumed in what seemed like hours but in reality was only a minimum of one hour. Many conversations transpired about your mother spending days polishing all she owned.

Does the one you have look like this?

Love,

TD

Well Tom I must say that the twin I have has the same overall shape but I like my silver like my shirts, unkept.

I don't iron nor do I polish.

We use our candalabra on some occasions when our 10 candle chandelier doesn't quite cut it. It is black and as unpolished as the candalabra.

I also believe that since the candalabra here doesn't get worn down it will last forever. Yeah thats it!

Bochsler Family Update

I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...

Remembering Sean

By
The remaining Barrys. This picture was taken at Sean's funeral. Sean's absence is definitely felt. The last time I saw Sean, was about a year ago, the end of March '06. My husband, Brian and I showed up unannounced at his place and he graciously entertained us. If he had other plans, he never mentioned them. My brother, Brian has a pub in Camrose, AB. Sean apparently would stop in daily and drink coffee, wanting to stay in touch. Brian had a new year's eve party a couple of month previous, so I asked Sean if he'd gone. He said no, he'd quit drinking and realized that a new years eve party would probably not be conducive to achieving his goals. He'd also recently quit smoking. I remember thinking that was a lot to give up all at once, but of course didn't want to say anything to discourage him. Sean also had a dream to buy himself all new camping gear and go on a camping trip. This he did at the end of the summer. After achieving his goals, his heart gave...
