***
Seven years ago Walter peacefully passed away in his sleep aged 91, except his two wife’s and his oldest son he was predeceased by a year also by Hank’s widow Velma and Greta’s husband Archie. After caring for her mother and grandfather until their last breath, Ruth finally gave in and married her childhood friend that she has been in touch with. She moved away from the family farm to Minneapolis where her husband works as director of a local branch of a bank. In the following years they welcomed three little boys who are now aged five, three and six months.
After Pip’s sister moved away the family farm became in dire need of woman’s hand with just the two bachelors living there. Pip has never been that interested in dating and his first few dates were a pure disaster putting him off for a while, but just when he gave up he literally bumped into his future wife at a local market, the rest of that day became a history once they were married eight months later. They are now proud parents to a three year old daughter and two months old son. His uncle Alvin did not lose much time either and got married just weeks after his nephew. His wife is a retired piano player and can be often heard playing and singing to Pip’s children.
Yannick, who studied and became a surgeon much to Clyde’s joy, has found the love of his life as well. His wife’s parents fled to Canada from Yugoslavia when she was still a baby and worked hard to enable their daughter to have the life she could never have if they stayed in their home country, she is a fellow surgeon and they met for the first at a conference several years ago before finally getting together once she transferred to the same hospital that Clyde is working in. Clyde and his wife have recently welcomed a daughter.
Mara and Jay had their hands full with Lars and Kelly who were both active toddlers and children; their youngest daughter who is five now is with her shy and sweet personality complete opposite of her older siblings
After years of waiting for that moment Norman and Geneva are finally grandparents and their four months old granddaughter has already wrapped them around her pinky. Shirley met her husband during a trip to Washington with her best friend. It’s been a love at first sight and he proposed during his first trip to New York months later. While happy for their daughter Norman and Geneva felt she was rushing into a marriage too soon without really knowing her husband and while stubborn at first she and her now husband agreed on a long engagement and were married only two and half years later.
Jefferson, a domestic airline pilot, on the other hand was losing no time when he married his girlfriend a stewardess after six months of dating recently, the two of them still on cloud nine.
