A few weeks ago, Mom’s father, Robert Vincent Batliner, passed away. He was 88 years old. Rob and I were able to spend three days with him in hospice in Kansas City before he passed away. This was a special time for us and we were glad to have that time with him. Over the course of our visit and stay with Mom’s sister Michelle, we discovered more photos of Mom as a child and wanted to share those here. Mom’s birthday is tomorrow, April 23rd; she would have been 64 years old.

I want to share a couple of posts from friends on Bawpaw’s obituary site here:

What a trip down memory lane looking at the pictures you have put on this site! I love you like you are my family and my heart and soul hurts for you all. I love you so much! All I can say is dear bawpaw and Shery are together once again. Love you…Anne

Comment by Emily Reeves April 22, 2011 @ 9:02 amI remember vividly the first time I met Mr. B around April 1967 in Fayetteville, AR. I can see Mr. and Mrs B walking in the front door of the DG house holding the hand of the cutest little girl, Michelle Batliner. Mr. and Mrs. B made several visits over the college years and we had many a discussion regarding Shery’s academic and social life. When we moved to Richardson, TX Mr. B always treated us as if we were part of his family, for better or worse. Mr. B loved his family. I loved visiting with him at the shop, and in later years, in Shreveport. Mr. B always made us laugh with his detailed storytelling. He weathered many storms but was able to stand strong. Shery loved him dearly and I can hear her describing him, “He was a real trooper!” We miss Mr. B!
