Sam and Joe stopped in and I happened to find "a new toy" that he just loved to play with! They say it is the simple things in life that makes us happy...I guess that is true. Sam, you are the light of my life!

The Loss of a dear friend.
On July 3 a dear, dear friend of ours, Chips Cronen returned to Heaven. He will be missed. We pray and ask for prayers for his wife Barbra and sons. I came across this scripture that seems to be appropriate for Chips, it reads from Ephesians 6: 16-18 "At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the evil one. And accepting salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occassion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for God's people."
This is just one thought that gives "light" to the life of Chips Cronen. He was truly a prayer warrior. I've counted on his prayers many times and will continue to do so..
Vic and I met in 1968 while we were both in high school, fell in love and married Feb.18, 1972. We have been very blessed and consider ourselves "luckier than we deserve"
We were blessed with 3 children...two are with us here and one angel resides in Heaven.
Victor Shelton is our first and Meredith Leigh is our second. We lost our third to miscarriage 18 years ago.
We have our own business which has been very rewarding and at times a little stressful. God has blessed our company with the work that we have needed to survive and then some.
We have three adorable grandchildren which has been the absolute greatest gift ever! Victor Samuel, age 4...
Madeline Christine, age 2 (almost)
Samuel Joseph, 5 months
We are expecting our 4th from Victor and Marla in Nov....another girl!!!
Thank you Lord.
Keep up with me if you can and I will send as many pix as I can. This is fun, thanks Meredith for being patient with me and this computer thing.
