Photo 23-HMU-5

Comments

This was my dads home he grew up in. I know the owners who live there now. His name is Hubert Vanloon. My grandparents who owned it were Gerald and Ellen Tibbe.

My dad always put in a large garden. Raising 9 children there, my parents did everything they could to help. We would sell sweetcorn on M37 and mom would use the money earned to help buy our school clothes. Good memoriesπŸ™‚

The children all helped with the work inside and out. We also took the children on vacation with some of the money they made on selling the corn. On day we picked and sold 200 dozen . I am nearly 90 .thanks for the memories. I remember the day these were taken by plane.
