Come visit my parents!!

My parents really miss seeing everyone.If you live close please make plans to come see them,after my father recovers from his surgery. He should be up for visitors by next week. Since he no longer drives, he cant just take a drive up to Hamilton to visit everyone. Please ask your parents if they would consider going for a 30 minute drive down the QEW. It would mean a lot to my parents. This August my mother turns 85. My father turned 85 last December.
We dont know how much longer they will be with us.
Please call them first @ 905 938 5749. They are out of there room for meal times. Heidehof is on Lake street and they have just openned a cafe in the lobby so you could eat there or go out for a meal. Thanks they will really appreciate it.

Call me if you want directions or have questions 905 988 5713

Thanks for posting this Dan. Mom and Dad do need to see some faces besides ours and the nursing home. Taking them to Hamilton is still possible but a lot more difficult than it was before. It would really lift their spirits to have visitors. If anyone can make it down you would make their day!
We'll make some arrangements. It's always nice to see your parents.

Bochsler Family Update

Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. 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

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...
