Valerie’s Homecoming

Today Mommy and the boys met Daddy’s first cousin Valerie Persons, who traveled from Richmond, Virginia to visit with us. She had not been to Owensboro for many years and had planned to attend Uncle Gene Ray’s August birthday party family reunion , but was unable to travel that weekend. Seizing the moment, she rented a car and drove west for an October surprise visit. At our encouragement, she stayed in our guest room, which allowed Valerie ample time to meet and bond with the twins. She brought them an assortment of toy trucks, which they loved and enjoyed. Valerie is a grandmother of two girls; four year old Emma and nine month old Grace, so she was fluent in little people matters.
