Before Dad complained of terrible back ache and was taken to the ER on June 14, he was living with my cousin, Norm, and Norm's wife, Vicki.
Vicki had a great idea to borrow the dining room of the nursing home and bring in spaghetti and bread. Aunt Sandy and I were in charge of fruit and salad. Almost all of Norm and Vicki's in-state children and grandchildren came (their son, Norman III, is serving in the Army). Jacob had to work.

It was a glorious din of kid noises, not usually heard in a nursing home. Comically, some residents kept coming up to the door and peering through the window to see what was going on. =) Dad seemed to enjoy all the company, but naturally it wore him out.
