  • Notes 

    • Florence Marjorie Shedd July 28, 1991 My Mother

      July, 28, 1923. Today I was born! What an exciting life you brought me into! You never did tell me that I was born on your mother's birthday. I did not learn about that fact, until I began doing ancestral search. I assume, that you wanted me to accept Grandpa Shedd's new wife, Anna Pratt Shedd, as my grandmother. I did, thanks to your acceptance of her, and the fact that you always referred to her as Grandma Shedd, to us kids. I appreciate that fact. I wish, however, that I had known, that I was born on my original Grandma Shedd's birthday, so that I could have remembered her, as I do today! Herman William Tripp--Remembering----

      To my Mother, I remember back when I was 3 years old. The first birthday I remember clearly though, was my 5th birthday, and my 5th birthday cake! You remembered to make me a birthday cake, every single year, as long as you lived! Everry one of those cakes in my memory, was an angel food cake, made for me with the proper number of candles on it. What a treat to look forward to each year, not for the cake especially, but for the remembering of my birth date. I rememberer, my 10th birthday, like it was yesterday. It was special. I wanted to go over to Lynn's place to play and you would not let me. I did not like that and I said, "Its my birthday and you should let me do whatever I want to do.." Pretty soon Lynynn came over to my place, then all the Hansen girls ( Marie, Marjorie, Mable, Ruby, and Luella) came, bringing pigeons for presents. About this time I was beginning to feel sheepish. You had secretly planned this party for me and I did not knoow anything about it! It was my very first surprise party and was I ever surprised! Before the day was over, more than a dozen friends and relatives had come over and did we have fun! After the party I had enough baseballs and other gifts to last a long-long time! I remember numerous other birthdays, when, that ever present birthday cake was there for me, and the every year birthday dinner, with all our family present. Those were the days to remember!! Herman William Tripp--Remembering----

      July 15, 1993 On July 28, 1993, I will be seventy years old. The time has gone so fast!! Life has been fun, and exciting. I feel so privileged to have lived at the right place and the right time. I have tried real hard to pay attention to each happenstance, to hang on to it, it only happens once. I have succeeded fairly well in most instances, but still......quite a few things I would like to bring back. Its hard to get old and let go............

      October 24, 1993 I started my autobiography today under a new sub-directory called Herman's Autobiography. It is called up by typing Autobio at the C prompt. I can't help but remember how we children always relied on our mother to remember dates or whenever what happened!! She always compared what happened or when it happened to something else relating to what was easily remembered, at least for her. She could figure out anything we wanted to know. I wish she was here now to help me remember all these things I want to remember while I write my autobiography. I'll bet she even knew that I was one year three months and seventeen days old when Alice was born. That means that Alice is 475 days younger than I. Norma was born when Alice was four years, one month, and twenty seven days old. Therefore Alice was 1,488 days old, and I was 1,963 days old when Norma was born. I was five years, five months, thirteen days older than Norma. Elizabeth Ann came along eight yyears, nine months, and twenty five days after Norma. I was thirteen years, three months, eight days of age, and Alice was twelve years, nine months, and twenty one days of age when Elizabeth Ann Tripp was born. She became our "little sister" our "pride and joy, " forever. Herman William Tripp--Remembering......
