Dad Spent Time With Son's

For a first post really about Bob and being a dad, he was great with his son's will later if still have team pictures even with Bob he always was involved. Coached certain team sports even with them. Bob and I even during raising our children did great really in a worldy sense where marriage and raising of children went I think. Two thumbs up I would give him. Great provider..changed jobs to be with his son's too...so had his boy's in mind...a desire he did have that man to be better than how raised I feel...and he did this. Teaching training and would have those boy's involved with his projects if they wanted..very willing man to train in all he knew..and he was a handy man..not afraid to learn himself how to fix and do anything. He continues to this day to even share any knowledge he has regarding any questions.

He got involved with us women wanting and playing softball even as we had not good coaches and ones would not stay to coach us..as in having no practice. You can't win anything without it even in the Word of God. There it was lacking. A lot of his involvement for women's team was begging him my girlfriend Becky across the street, she knew he coached son's...and Becky wanted practice Bob would do this with boy's team. We all did have lots of fun during all those years, friends as we even played then co-ed ball..so fun years they were and very active and busy, Becky chose wisely, her husband played co-ed too. So fun years, not centered around work or work people. To me even being around all those people I had the best of the lot couldn't have asked for better.

Children grow up and leave...for us a totally new ball game. Will share good highlight as that was a lot of years of fun.  Struggles are in everything we had our share believe me during this time even.

As a parent you desire or at least I did I have no clue how Bob feels he didn't talk much.. but for me, my desire for son's was to get just the best qualities from each of us.  Not carry on the bad qualities.

There was no place I could think of being to raise children, perfect small starter home view everything front and back..great to keep eye on front and back.. by one of the best parks there was..close we walked and walked to elementary school without the thing being in view.  Could not have asked for better, it was tops.  No one in family had it that good..purchased boat even..did that also while young.. best we had, paid 26,250.00 for that house, Bob's dad purchased for us VA loan no money down, he sold to us for $1.oo..new construction completed except flooring and I maybe upgraded stove I chose, original color black trim, I had choice of several that model and location but think that total...moved my sis birthday 3/28/1974 or 5.  The black faded with AZ sun over the year, I chose new color blue.   Mounted police at park..it was a wow park...bad part on other side of canal and tracks, Guadalupe and dealing with Mexican gangs at time.

Becky and I kept our street clean and clear of them, boy's dealt more with in high school.

Bob's mother purchased 1/2 this house when he had to move Glendale, then to Mesa each them about a year and had to buy out his mom get our house back.. interesting numbers and parent involvement.  Think we put price at 32,000.00 then for her by half of.  I will have to look up what it was set at when we buy back..and interesting think Bob made his sister be straw party sale to clear title.

She wanted me go with her to AZ visit her sister lived Mesa, hubby worked coal mines or something what remember about her hubby was a new type jeans..he would be so filthy, come home spray himself off with hose..hang to dry..would wear again.. Anyway Leah and I would take her sisters car go out, had not met anyone really, stopped gas station.. dude there Skip Metcalf found out later as here lived with Bob.  Sent us to "The Library"  A college hang-out...so kids no lie say going to the library tell parents.  Right close to ASU...Tempe.  So we went he gave us directions say he would be there when off work would look for us.  Well we found out things totally different there than Indiana.  In Indiana when you went out with the girls...you were darn picky who you would even dance with.  That was showing interest in the dude spend time with thing.  Not AZ word them changed constantly never talking while dancing totally weird to us....have different partner each dance...weird.  I told her we will never meet a person from here.  Anyway, so ended up dancing with Bob, him I did introduce myself to... first thing out of that dudes mouth was, you are not from AZ are you?  I said No am not, am from Indiana, here vacation almost done.  Well we did dance more together then and he ask me go outside talk so did.

To Be continued...the next part even weirder.

A vision? Near death experience?

 A vision? Near death experience?

I had brought this up as did post about my drivers training from my Daddy.  This of course before married, Bob had taken me to the river where they would go tubing down the river.  Take their drinks beer, float in a group down the river...so took me to do this.  

He then did bring up something that had happened to him and I didn't know what it really meant as he did not tell me.  He had tipped over at some rapids area and could swim.. but was pulled under water and could not get up.  He said he saw his life flash before his eyes.. then like stopped the struggle I guess seeing it and it made him like go under things and pop up from the current.  I actually had the feeling whatever he saw shocked him maybe?? enough to make him stop fighting to come up top the water.  Anyway I did not know what it meant for someone that young really to have his life flash before his eyes.

  Now did after mentioning this got the impression my question was answered by Matthew.. felt he said past as I had asked could it have been future?  I just then said, well if past it sure didn't stop the drinking.  I was not sure reading him properly but thought if the boys maybe see this to mention saw and ask him about it.  See if he will say to you what he saw flash as in life before his eyes meant.  Something different than computer things...and something I never did know.

NO MORE POSTS

 There will be no more posts on these sites...will build to help the only person in family that talks to me normal whom I have known since high school, my sister Con, only one that would often come see me.  So will skin the cat, preventing my site for my brother-in-law,  my sister's family deserves support with their things.  My family well who the heck knows.

If you are interested in anything else have fun.  Scroll all you want here on my life.  When I see this type shit well it is very fitting for septic that is for sure, when you promote man over Yeshua and the Gospels you must really suck.

Some dog years

 

 Instructions left to sons while we were in KY 1995 contract

We of course used to laugh and tease saying our children wouldn’t leave home so we did lol well we didn’t have dogs any longer...told the kids not to get one I think but josh did I think he got Harley then. Josh was a critter dude hahaha like his mom so I would let him get several things… he had lots more than I ever did. But hey I liked watching them too.

 1999 move to KY

 Joe Crisp working thru us..lived backed up to maybe down a house to owner of our rental… Joe had a herding dog forget the breed, black white sheep dog remember watching movies about the breed and competitions with them they will also use that breed for akc field stuff race.. .you don’t get dogs like that with nothing to do. Anyway he had back surgery all kinds of stuff problems and finally put the young dog down.

My dog training Farm started 2005

Weaving in and out the poles made dog ramp sch for that… made my jumps...used old house vinyl and velcro to stick how high wanted it...made my own balance beam using piece of wood 2x4 lifted on brick just liked to play. Just was curious once learned some things from David just what a pup could learn and how fast...for myself really.

Jacobs Family Personal Items of Aunt Sis's

1999 - Aunt Sis moved to full care

 As I said these stories will be all over the place in year...trying to put year so son's can if want sort to get that in order should they desire too. Just post as led and remember. Well Betty was living with us by this time I believe, as we were planning move to KY. Mary was living in Portland with sister Susan as had moved their after divorce. I had all the dealings all the years with Aunt Sis and who she had in charge of taking care of everything for her. Bill Fessler, as I remember he was and how met is the Bank she always used. That is my memory of him and I am probably the only person to have to this day Bill's personal information. Well it was Bill that even got her into this retirement home, and as I recall just in the nick of time...Sis had an apartment living on her own there, of which Bill had explained to me that you purchase, and own...there were things tied to that...what offered then was full care when you could no longer care for yourself. The apartment then would go back to them to re-sell. 

 Now why this was done...Aunt Sis had breast cancer, and did have radiation treatments, I am assuming cancer, even though the term was not used...but she had to have radiation. She also had dementia. Aunt Sis before even Bill made that move would call me in KY when we were just there 1995 on when just Bob and I were temp in KY him a consultant, Aunt Sis would call me as always and tell me about needing to find place.  Well I let too Betty know this even though they would not talk..Betty wanted me try to talk her in to coming to AZ for this, well did mention to Sis..not the way she ended up doing. So 2 reasons for this move for Bill. He always called and kept me informed. I would relay info to Bob and his mother. She could either inform others of family or not, was not up to me. Why me? Well Betty and Sis didn't talk, Betty had also gotten pissed with her, used to talk to her, but really pissed as Aunt Sis was always changing her will.. Betty hated that, didn't feel it should be done. Reason Aunt Sis would do these things is because no one in that family would talk to her but me. Once in a great while Mary, but she would even hang up on her...the thing Mary always did for years..was send her a card for every occasion. Susan, was her favored, as her mother favored Bob, so Aunt Sis stepped in for Susan. Then Susan wouldn't even speak to her. So I basically was the only person that Aunt Sis could call and talk to of that family. 

I would always let her speak to my sons, and every once in a while as she set a timer for calls, and I could hear that and know...I would force Bob to say hi when her time about done. Betty went with me to Chicago, as it again me sent to do this, and get her things...Betty wanted to go with me...Bill very upset about it as how Sis felt about Betty and their falling out. She went anyway. Well to Bill's surprise, Betty was whom she recognized and you would have thought nothing happened between then. 

I made Bob one time write her even a letter, he told me what would I even say, I said talk about the boys and you coaching etc.  He did do that..and on one travel trip talked to Bill. 

It was Betty and I though that went through all of her things in that apartment, as she had been moved to full care.  She had saved that letter from Bob all thoughs years and I had found it.  We loaded all in back of Bob's truck as that is what I drove to do this. It was then Betty who decided who got what of the Jacobs things, as nothing was recovered from Bob's dad's death for family. She chose on all items, and then proceeded to have sent to each child. 

At this time in Betty's life, she had 2 blood great-grand-children both girls.. one from Josh, and I believe also at the time 1 from Ian, Mary's son. Only ones she had. Of course am sure when Sis's dad passed things divided to go the Bob's dad and to keep Aunt Sis. Well Carolyn had all from Bob's dad. This was how personal belongings of Aunt Sis were then divided to the Jacobs children of Betty's. 

 Mary with all her moving, as even when she came to KY with all these things, she moved from town to town in KY..breaking most all given from Aunt Sis. I did feel bad for her and gave her a couple things given me. Well then even way before that...Mary living in same subdivision married Jeff... She want Aunt Sis to come out.. then kick her out of her house that of course when I was playing tennis still so around 1989 or 90...well where the heck can you go with set flight plans.. Betty didn't want her either, it was Mary's doing... Bob no want her it was Mary's doing let her deal with it.. Will tell you that great story too,,, stay tuned.

Jeremy's Baptism and godparents

1972-2-26 Jeremy Lee Jacobs birth - 1972-4-23 Baptism Godparents Carey Ehrman and Cheryl Ehrman Well was going through looking for paper for the divorce and still have some of J's things so took pics again of them. Found very interesting the numbers tied to the child, on his birth certificate he is Registered No. 917 on 2-29-1972

On his baptism a scripture from Matthew... 28:19 Very fitting of Father, and give the child a heart for a server for the Lord that he was given. 

Matthew 28:19 (KJV) Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 

And fitting the name Matthew actually being Yeshua-Matthew in the flesh. I had one child saved from death (Joshua) as a child, and it was the reading of that book Matthew God did a miracle.. I just find all things very interesting. Now my little brother Chris would call them cowinky dinks just a phrase he used saying God involved. Baptism.  The other tie, was to my sister's husband Larry his birthday is same day and he is about the only one that speaks normal with me and answers my questions, but I have known Larry since high school, my sister and I double dated a lot together then.


 Other dates tied to J is his second time marrying Natalie...I think that was Sept 29th Aunt Sis birthday.
