And of course all the other birthday people

By
Happy Birthday to all the March birthday people.

It's interesting for me to attempt catch-up since my absence. There seem to have been a lot of people born into the extended Ford family...a lot of children whom I've never met.

I am interested in re-connecting with all the nieces & nephews whom I used to know. If you haven't re-connected with me (or I with you) I would love to hear from you. I understand if some of you may not want this. I'm not that familiar with the workings of this blog but can I assume that my e-mail is provided to you when I send these messages????.

Love from Uncle Al & Happy Easter.

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!) :( ...
