101
In honor of the 101st anniversary of his birth, let us celebrate the life of Thomas Stevenson Rushforth: Eat some licorice, tell some children to lower their voices, love your children in his memory, or turn on a ball game and rest your eyes. You could bake a cake with 101 candles or send everyone to bed at 10 ( well, maybe not that extreme). You could add a few remembrances to this blog. Whatever you do, take time to remember how much he loved his family, his friends, his God and his country and be grateful.

From Sharla,
ReplyDeleteMy kids remember "simmer down". :)
From Glenda,
I remember singing a song in the car that got louder and louder with each verse and was so fun. So bewildered when asked to lower our voices. I think I get it now
Here's to black licorice and new understanding. Cheers
From Sandra,
...vanilla ice cream, bread & milk, canned milk...
I remember we could stay up past 10:00 and watch Perry Mason with Aunt Gertrude.
And later, when we'd come to visit he'd ask if we needed help with gas money or money in general. :) :) :)
