He is 82 and has been telling us "Pippin" stories for years. He never varies when telling a story---always the same. I can't begin to tell you how I will miss him when he's no longer with us. I never tire of hearing him tell of the old days no matter how often he re- peats the stories. He has told us how his mother's (Frona Kirby) family objected to her marry- ing his father (Granville) because of the difference in their ages. He was born in 1868 and she in 1886--- 18 years apart. Before I began to research the family history, Dad taught me a trick to remember the years of their births. Just switch the last two digits. Course, now I know them by heart.
