Happy Father’s Day to all of the fathers in my family..and to the fathers everywhere
….and we remember, with love, all of the fathers in heaven.
Daddy, you fell in love with Mother, married in 1943
and celebrated your 67th wedding anniversary with Mother on April 17, 2010.
What a wonderful role model and exemplary Father you have been, Daddy…
…we all love you and thank you for being our prototype for how a father should be.
And now for some pictures……..

And on Father’s Day I am remembering the fathers in heaven……
My Grandma Albertson and Grandpa Albertson *J.B. Sr.
He had a farm with real chickens – in real life …..not just the kind we have on our Farmville game.
I remember him going out to gather the eggs…..and I remember riding to church with him in his pickup truck!
My Grandpa Orval Lyle
I used to love to go to the mountains in Colorado to visit.
He gave me my first pet when I was three years old – a real chicken –
and we lived in the city – I will never forget CHICKIE JACK!
Chickie Jack was actually a rooster who woke up the CITY NEIGHBORS with his early morning crowing. :):)
My Uncle Donald Albertson *on the far right in the picture below
I remember being amazed when my uncle auctioned cattle – he could talk faster than anyone I ever heard…
..the only thing I ever understood was at the end when he shouted SOLD!
What would we do without those special influences in our lives!
Thank you to all of our fathers.
What legacy, what a gift to us all, a gift that just keeps giving and giving and giving, providing our world with the guarantee of a brilliant and hopeful future………………….. And to recall that this gift came to be all because of a love story…………….. We are all so very blessed, Happy Father’s Day to one and all………..
