March 11, 2009 Email from Dale

I know we all miss Dale a lot, especially his immediate family. We used to talk on the phone at least once a week, but there was always the daily e-mails from him. I have saved them all, and am sill woking on reading them. Here is a good one......cousin Mike


Worth thinking about... The Lord has a way of revealing to those of us who really know Him and those who don't!!!

Think about it! Obama gave a big speech last week about how his faith is so "important" to him. In an attempt to convince the American people that religion is so important to him, he said his favorite Bible verse is John 16:3. Of course the speech writers meant John 3:16, but nobody in the Obama camp is familiar enough with scripture to catch the error.
Do you know what John 16:3 really says?


"And they will do this because they have not known the Father nor Me."

The Holy Spirit works in strange ways.

The Minear family lost another member this week. Jackie's husband of many years died in his sleep last Saturday night. WD(Emily always called him WD-40) was a good man and took really good care of Jackie when she was so ill. Mike has a lot of funny stories about the thrifty," tight indian." Funeral is today the 27th in Woodland, Ca.

It's About Time

I don't believe anyone is reading this but maybe some day some one will. Just to let you know Emily has a friend. A serious friend. It appears at this point that Dec. 20 in Athens, Tx she will become Mrs. Andrew Smith. Andrew is a civilian in Iraq at least until November and a very good man. We met him in March when he was home for r&r. Our requirements, or my requirements, for her a husband have always been the same.1)must sing bass,Jim and I are both tenors 2)must cook, Emily can't at all, 3)capable of providing, at first we wanted a big money maker, Emily is high maintenance. Well according to Andrew he starts on bass ends up somewhere, he cooks cheap cuts of meat for fear of messing up the good ones, and is not wealthy but doesn't care either. Emily will be 31 in Sept. Andrew sounds perfect to me.

Let us hear news about your bunch.

God Bless, Dale

Pat's Surgery

Don't know if anyone is even looking at this site or not, but Pat had her surgery this morning. It is the same one she had several years ago to stop her shakes. It worked great for her back then, but I guess the bionic womans computer got outdated. Needed an upgrade and got it. Reports this morning are that all went well. God Bless
