Discussing News

This was taken on March 21, 2008, while Grandma finishes preparing yet another of her superb dinners. During this visit, Grandpa and Grandma explored moving to Waterford and Greencroft. They enjoyed nearly two decades of retirement in 1408-5. Everything was so well cared for during that time. Several months later, they made the move. Kristen is now enjoying the round end table in which the games were stored (how Bruce got it into his front passenger seat remains a mystery). The beautiful lamps and dining room furniture have found a new home with Christopher and Sofaia, so there will be memories of 1408-5 for years to come.

Grandpa Reading Newspaper in Living Room


I like this calm portrait showing Grandpa, as we so often saw him, quietly reading the newspaper by the lovely large window which faced west--the window they added to the design when the condos were built, and which made 1408-5 so very special, giving it far more light than the other units received. I also have memories of Grandpa reading books in his upstairs study at 196 West Street, the study which doubled as Paul's and my bedroom.
