I have had several people contact me and ask, "'why don't you have pictures of your family?" The only answere I can give is I was just thinking of every one and every thing else about Coalwood. Our family made as many memories as the next family in Coalwood, so here we are.
Levie and Oleta
Dad was proud of his garden and every one in Coalwood enjoyed the harvest. Dad always raised more than we could ever use. Dad had several gardens in town and all were well hoed, weeds were not allowed.
Birthdays were a BIG DEAL at our house.
42 Years of service with Miss Olga. He was as proud of it as we were.
One of the few times we got dressed up for a picture.
Mom's door was always open and the coffee was always hot. If you were man enough to drink it .
For the many people who knew our bunch I hope these pictures bring some fond memories to you and if they do please share them on the guest book or email me. I have included all emailed stories in my albums .
A special thanks to Marvin Gates and Martha Ellen Copley for asking for pictures of us.
<-- Dad thought I needed to continue my exercise training while on leave during my time in the Navy.
