Today would have been Jim's 71st birthday.  He has been gone for over 6 years now.  But he was a big presence in our lives for many years, and his influence lives on.

Happy Birthday Uncle Jim!

Happy Birthday Hester!!

I'm pretty sure I post this photo every year on Hester's birthday.  So you wouldn't want me to stop now, would you??

 

And we can't do a Kerksiek post without this precious photo!!  Gotta love the hair here!!

 

And I didn't have all night to find a more recent photo of Hester - so here she is with Ida as a newborn.

Hester has always been part of the Terrill family life it seems - and we are so glad for that.  She's a wonderful daughter, sister, aunt, wife, mother, niece, granddaughter and friend.

Happy day to you - and all year through!!
