Meet Lawrence Leon Weeks Sr.

I’m loving that some of my friends and family are finding my blog and commenting.  Of course, I did help that along by posting some on my Facebook page.  Hopefully, people will eventually want to take the extra step and, actually, bookmark the blog.



I was chatting with my daughter, Jessica, hoping for a little feedback that might help me improve my posts.  She thought my last post "Remembering Life on the Farm - LLW Sr. could be a little confusing when reading phrases like "my grandmother".  One of the most important reasons I am writing this blog is to publish the work of my father, Lawrence Leon Weeks Sr.  Jess and I have been harassing him for years about writing  all the wonderful stories for which he is famous in our family. His unique voice comes through clearly.  Once he started to write, he was prolific and his stories entertained us all.  These entries were specifically written to explain a  series of pictures that were sent to him by his parents when he had to spend a lengthy period of time in an army hospital.  All "Remembering Life on the Farm" entries were written by him. As you can see by the photos, he  loves to entertain.

Just a process note, I'm having a bit of an issue with posting pictures and placing them where I'd like them to be.  I had a few more and thought you'd like to see Dad at several stages of his life. I decided that if I wanted you post this tonight, two will do.

    1. Honest to goodness, Anita, I can't think of anyone who doesn't love him and think he's extra special. You know "just like a blueberry in a pan of milk." Hee hee.
