Merry Christmas to old site members from a relatively
new one. I enjoy visiting Tim Barker's blog site;curr-
ently,there is a lovely photo on it of him enjoying Christmas eve dinner with his children. Judging from
his blog entries,he has quite a loving and committed
relationship with them. Given that his own childhood
may not have been perfect,(whose is!) due to his parents' contentious relationship-credit is due him for his obvious devotion as a dad. Also, glad to see
he maintained a relationship with his own dad,who
always seemed to get the shift where publicity was
concerned. To end this long-winded entry, I wonder if
he is a grandfather yet and whether his mother had
the chance to know her older grandchildren at all
prior to her death?
Elaine, as far as I know, Tim is not a grandfather, and I might be mistaken, but I think Susan knew only two of her grandchildren - Tim's daughter, Nadia, and Greg's son, Chris.
Thank you so much Tim for posting the latest three pictures on your site with your family. It is a pleasure to see them and hope you all had a great Christmas.
Thanks Ginger for answering my question; I read some-
where that Susan would have liked to have had a daughter at some point. I'm guessing that she was happy when Tim had a girl. Also,on a different subject,do you know whether Tim is writing a book
since he seems to hint at it in his bog? Thanks!
Howard-Tim Barker's blog site is .........planettrout.
wordpress.com. His avocation is fishing-fly fishing to
be exact. It is very well written.lots of family photos, and of course,it does mention Susan. Enjoyable
on several levels. I certainly hope he doesn't mind
me sharing this info-his site was actually given on
Ginger's old site.
Ginger is correct, my Mom only knew Nadia and Chris. She passed away before her other grandchildren were born. None of my kids have made me a grandpop - yet..although rumor has it that Nadia may be working on it soon...
Happy New Year,Tim. Perhaps you'll be a granddad in
2010:it's the best......all the fun and none of the
responsibility! I speak as the grandmother of four.
I hope your mother enjoyed her time as one-even briefly.
