Happy 80th Birthday from the Beaver Meadow Bunch

Bert,
Do you remember tipping the baby out of the bicycle basket when you were babysitting!
That was my first concussion!!
I remember the car that Irma Perkins gave you and how I loved Learning to drive with it!
I remember making syrup in the shack up in the woods at night, after a long days work, on a pot bellied stove that we could see right through and I have many memories of you and Brian making this a grand experience with your many humorous stories.
It was winter time and sometimes as a small kid i shared a bed with You. You would make up a story about bears in the room and get me to hide under the blanket and then proceed to profusely pass gas and laugh your head off!!
Another story I remember is You spending a prolonged period of time on the toilet....most likely reading Motortrend magazine.....Lane would run up the stairs rapidly, burst the bathroom door open and flush the toilet with you sitting on it. As I remember your response was "Ill get even with you even it takes the rest of my natural life!"
As a youngster it was great to look forward to you coming home on the weekend.
As a Teenager I remember the numerous time You and Linda came out and picked me up at MacDonald college and included me in many family dinners, trips to Glen Sutton, and supported me in woodsmen competitions.
More recently You have always been a great supporter on many projects that we had on the go such as wiring the new Lake place, wiring renovations in the farms house and the new sugarhouse. We always appreciated the hospitality of Norfolk and the many enjoyable family gatherings with cards games, swimming and food as well as solving all the worlds problems!
Brenda and I have appreciated your support with our maple syrup endeavors.
One "Bertisms" that I can think of is.....Time will take care of everything!
Thanks for all the good time and memories and we hope you have a great celebration of 80 years!!
Love Herb
