Collecting Pictures

Corrine slept through the night without needing any additional medications. She woke this morning wanting to sit up and go to the bathroom, and she did. Her bowels worked well with only a little help, so she is not constipated. Corrine is very pale and tired, but still has her thankful and caring attitude. The nurse is not going to come today since we have been able to keep her relatively comfortable. Yesterday, the nurse gave us additional medications that we can administer as a suppository to help to control fever, pain, and nuasea. We are prepared for changes in her condition and always have a nurse on call...

Now for the fun stuff...

We are looking for pictures... Corrine the adventurer, mother, friend, creator, child, sister, aunt... you name it, we want it... from all stages of her life...

We want her grandchildren to know what a dynamic life thier grandma led. Corrine was not a photographer and we do not have a lot of pictures of her adventures until Don, who is talented. Maybe you have some pictures we could use...

How to get them to us:

1. Scan the picture to make the picture available electronically.
2. E-mail the pictures to Corrinesfamily@gmail.com
3. Write an explanation: date or general time period, event, and people who are in the picture

Alternately (if technology is not your way):

1. Send us the pictures or negatives (along with a self addressed return envelope if you want them back) and we will take care of getting the pictures digital.

We are having so much fun sharing memories with one another and learning more about Corrine's past. Thanks for looking!

  1. Corrine and family...
    Just wanted to let you know how much you are loved and that we are lifting you up all of the time. Corrine, I pray that I will be the kind of Mother you have been to your kids. You are so inspiring to me. Loving unconditionally and letting God work through you. Always demonstrating His love. Reading their blogs shows the deep love they have for you and you for them. Amazing.
    Love-

  2. Corrine & family,

    I wanted to share a great memory from new year's day, 2000. We shall never forget the gathering we had with you, Don, Steve, and some friends & Sklars at the Baldpate Inn during "Y2K" -- AND during which I proposed to Kristina. Thanks for your part in making such a special memory. Our love is with you and your kids & grandkids.

    Love,
    Trey, Kristina, Hans, Annika, Mary & Andy Sklar
