OK Since I posted a picture of Lynda that she didn't like, I'll post my least favorite picture of me. That was an awkward age. I don't have many fond memories of my early teenage years. As the caption says, this is a picture from my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary celebration. All of their descendants at the time were gathered there. The year was 1962 and they were married December 24 but I'm quite sure it wasn't the anniversary of the actual wedding day that the celebration was held. So Lynda was 18, I was 15, Kathy was 14, Carol Ann was 12 and Barbara was 9. As to the names, I will try to identify all, but may not be correct on some. W&L is wells and Lorraine, W&M is Willard and Marian and W&W is Winifred and Wood. Left to right seated in front Neal (W&L), Jayne (W&M), Janice (W&L), Jeffrey (W&M), Emile (W&L), Douglas (W&W). Seated L to R on the couch Susan (W&M) Grandpa, Lyle (W&W) Grandma, Barbara. Standing next to Susan on left Karen (W&L), on right Marsha (W&L), Standing behind Barbara, David (W&L) and to the right of Barbara in front of Kathy, Kevin (W&W) . Standing across the back L to R, Lynda, Lynne (W&M), Craig (W&M), Carol Ann, Woodrow holding Lorna, Winifred, Willard, Marian, Aubrey, Sibyl, Wells, Lorraine, Steven (W&L) Joanne (W&L), Kathy, Richard. Wells and Lorraine's youngest, Rachel, was not born yet. Feel free to correct if that is incorrect.

I remember this picture. I think you've done a good job of identifying everyone, though I didn't look at every identification. Fun picture!! Thanks.
Thanks, Dad. It's good to be reminded what life is all about on occasion.
Dad, I so appreciate all these postings. They are so fun and interesting. What a wonderful way to bring family history into every day life!
I agree with Jared ajd Joanna. Your efforts are appreciated. It is fun to see the pictures you post. Many of them I have never seen before,
I remember this photo. Actually, it's probably only the hair and glasses being dated that make you look awkward. I think you did a good job of identifying people. I'm not fond of hardly any pictures of me, so no offense. But the last one you posted I particularly don't like, I guess. Thanks for going to the trouble to share the pictures--I look forward to your posts.
I've always thought you took after the Lawrence side of the family. But I see a very strong resemblance between you and Uncle Willard. Wonder why I never noticed it before.
