June 14 th... Flag Day

I never forget Flag Day...Because my older brother John was born on that day...This year he will turn 87 years old...No...he will turn 87 years young!


Our mom and dad had four sons...Victor, John , Roger and Ronny (that's me) Our two brothers Vic and Rog have passed away...We were all born in Chicago, IL...Johnny married a West Coumbia girl and settled in West Columbia...I married a southern Ohio girl and settled in Columbia...Both of our dear wives have passed on...But Johnny,at the age of 85 has remarried...(You son-of-a-gun ,you) His lovely wife, Marie and he are avid health advocates...They try to eat veggies and fruits every chance they get...Johnny says he's going to live to be 100...I hope so...and I hope I'm around to celebrate that day too...but for now I'm going to celebrate Monday, (Flag Day) with Johnny and his family..."Happy Birthday, Brother...."

Happy birthday, Ronny's brother.

Thank you Uncle Bron...

Johnny has been an inspiration to me for my whole life...I use to tell people that he was the nicest person I have ever known...

I still tell people that...and he is still an inspiration...to his family (which there are many) and to his friends (a lot more) and especially to me (his little brother)...

Well, good on both of you; him for being nice, and you for appreciating it.
