Betty and Aubrey's family
Hugh and Natali's family
Judy and Louis' familyThanksgiving, a popular holiday, when families come together
and acknowledge our blessings and gifts. I am my happiest
when my children are here, around my table sharing.
Today was no exception, we were grateful for family,
health and espectially thankful for those who serve to
protect our families, our holidays.
My children are not perfect, but pretty near. They have
made good choices and best of all they are friends to each
other. The Patton kids jump to the defense of a sibling
when needed. Again today was no exception as several
drove to Nashville to see Aubrey who is recovering from
surgery at St. Thomas. We could not help but remember
that Betty was always the first to jump when one was sick
or needed special attention.
Today I am thankful for my husband, a New Year's Eve
date in 1943 that turned into a sixty three year love affair.
I am thankful for my parents and for his parents who taught
us lessons from the old school.
My sweetheart made me laugh every day in some way or
another and was always so faithful and true. A perfect
example of his parents upbringing.
Is there any way to list all the blessings we have recieved?
Today I say thanks for unknown blessings already on the way.

It surely was a day to be thankful. I especially was elated and blessed to have all my family, except Kyle, meet at 600 North Church for a great Thanksgiving. We don't seem to all be together as much as I would like so it means a lot, to Louis and I, when it happens. The food was great and it was wonderful to have a baby in the family, again.
Oh how joyous that so many of your children and theirs can still make the trip to Church Street for Thanksgiving. Hearing you talk about it makes me look even more forward to Christmas when I too can reunion with everyone again!
A precious car load, representing Merry’s family, is on their way to decorate 600 for that next big family event. I hope Aubrey will be sitting in a comfortable chair when I walk in the door!
I am thankful for you.
Merry
...By-the-way, Mother, you look beautiful!
