4. What is the latest news for you and family? I hope you and your wife are doing well and are healthy.
What kind of winter are you having?

@a19marvet.bsky.social Good evening, Joe. I tried to update you last night but, I somehow deleted it by accident. My clumsy fingers don't work very well.
I found my brother and his son, Steven.
I haven't been in touch with my brother Bill in many years. He is now in assisted living facility.
