Remembering our holidays with Joyce and when I was a child
Later in life, when I enlisted in the navy, Joyce and I were married soon after that. Joyce spent the holidays with her and my family while I was overseas. Once out of the navy Joyce had her time to shine with holiday celebrations.
Now with Joyce gone, I will make do with all the memories any man has to relish of those wonderful days gone by. The holidays will never again be the same, but then, how could they be without the most wonderful wife, mother and grandmother I ever knew?
When I was a youngster, Thanksgiving and Christmas were wonderful times. The house was filled with parents, their brothers and sisters, their wives and husbands, grandpa and his sisters in law. The house was filled with the aroma of food cooking. The dining room table would be filled with guests all around and the food was wonderful. I was too young to be involved in the conversation, but even as a child I could see happiness all around the table. It was an idyllic time in my life.
