We have also welcomed two new children to the family in the last few years, Perry and Miriam. Len, Agnes, Perry and Miri were all very, very sad to see Sammy go. He was so full of life!1914: The whole family relocated last year to an army base in Texas. Wally is in the army to protect our country. Right now, he's in training and is learning how to use planes. What a neat new invention they are. He will possibly be jumping out of them! We will definitely miss him. He is leaving in three weeks to be stationed in Germany.1920: Recently, little Josie became very ill with chicken pox. She ended up in the hospital for two weeks. Thankfully, none of the other children got it because they had it before she was born! Everyone is well again. Also, Len has gotten married! He and his new wife, Marjorie, welcomed a baby boy, Wesley, about a year ago. The kids just love being aunties and uncles! And we love being grandparents too! :]1925: Recently, we have had many new additions to the family! Just five years ago, we welcomed Wes. He is now six, and the big brother to Sylvia and Clayton, whom we call Clay. Also, Agnes married a lovely man, Martin Grant, and they have two girls, Beverly (Bev) and Lena. We are so proud of all of our children! Perry will be attending Texas A&M University next fall. We are all happy and excited for him!

They plan to start trying for a fifth when Stella is about a year old.William got married to a woman named Clara, who already had a son from a previous marriage (her husband was killed in the war). William adopted little Charlie, and shortly thereafter, he and Clara welcomed their first child together, a little girl whom they named Audrey.Cecilia, unfortunately, has gotten very caught up in the flapper lifestyle. Three years ago she moved in with a man named Max Pelletier, and much to her parents' horror, she and Max had a daughter out of wedlock soon after. True, they adore their granddaughter Lola, but they hope Max and Cecilia get married soon. The couple, however, have shown no intention of doing so.
