My Children and Theirs

Starting with Hugh...
Hugh and Natali live on the knoll of a beautiful hillside, complete with barn, horses, a wonderful dog and warm log cabin. Their

Golden Retriever, Murphy, is pictured here at the barn.

He is certain to smile at you when you arrive for a visit.
Natali is from Russia and is teaching Russian by Internet,

looking at the student face to face.

Soon after she came into our family, they lost their historic

farmhouse by fire, while on a little vacation in Gatlinburg
Afterwards they rebuilt on the site, a charming log cabin.

The oldest Patton child, Josh, lives close by and his sister, Becca

owns her own home in Marietta, Ga.

Josh married soul-mate Melissa

a couple of years ago. We love her dearly. She has added much to our family.

A year after Natali came from Russia, her two sons
came and joined our family, upon arrival they had
dreams of joining the US Marines on their mind. After applying for GreenCards, waiting 9 months for that,
they returned abroad to visit with friends before committing
to four years in service. Returning home first was Kirill, who
had conversation with a Navy Officer on flight home, and
had changed his mind to Navy when he got back. He has just
finished six month aboard the USS Ronald Reagan,
as you have read before on this blog. Kirill and Elan>>>>>>>

Yegor returned home and joined the Marines and was injured
in basic training, was in sick bay for several months trying to heal and was finally given a medical
discharge and came home to heal 18 months. He finally
had to go into VA Hospital for surgery and has healed nicely.
Last year Krill married a beautiful girl Elana
who lives in Los Angles and is pictured when Kirill returned
from six months at sea. At present, Kirill, Elana,
and Yegor are visiting in Russia.

We miss them. Yegor & Becca>>>>

Good Day! Goodby Paul Harvey
