I worked at Genealogy Library with Irene and Judy Barrett. Irene is leaving tonight to go with Mike Belnap to Orem to see Wendy, Jody and baby girl. Mike is going to school at BYU. Irene plans to be back next Tuesday with Dorothy.
Remember that Irene is Irene Olive Rust Grandma Talbot's oldest sister. They both lived in the Pocatello 5th Ward and for several years worked at the Pocatello Geneology Library together. They probably worked one afternoon a week there as a church calling.
I didn't remember that...it's a good thing you remember all this stuff, because I sure don't! Sometimes grandma's handwriting is a little hard to understand...
I never really knew my maternal grandmother very well. She passed away when I was 14, but she was very sick with Dementia for many, many years before that. One of the last things I ever remember her saying to me is that she loved me. What I do know about her is that she loved her family with all her heart. She was an extremely hard worker. She loved the Lord. Last year at the Talbot family reunion, my aunts were going through some of my grandparents old things when they came across my grandma's old day planners, in which she wrote out every thing she did for the day; a mini journal. So I am going to blog about her life in 1985 and try, when I can, to do something that she did that day. In the process, hopefully I will get to know her a little better, and maybe even get to know myself a little more.
