The day Marian Van Sickle was born in Durand, Illinois.
My eldest son Mark told me on his last visit home that we’re all just a generation or two away from being forgotten. I’ve been thinking about that fact and wanted to remember my Mother on the anniversary of her birth.










Our mother had her 88th birthday in a Rockford Illinois hospital and passed away 6 days later on September 9, 2000.
I remember her well. She was a lovely woman.
Thanks for remembering her and writing a nice comment today.
