Binding up the old memories

This morning I gathered up the pieces of my 1978 Upper Arlington Lutheran Church photo directory and took them to Staples (thank you, Mitt Romney, for helping that company get a start) along with some “new member inserts” and had it spiral bound with clear acrylic covers.  It had been on a shelf with a huge metal clip.  It cost me less than $3.50, and I don’t know why I didn’t think of it sooner.  Looking through it I see many saints who have gone to their reward, and also many families who are no longer together.  One widow, Mary Brenner, smiled out at me.  We met in 1978 and she died in 2005.  I wrote up a few memories of her after attending her funeral.
