THE END OF AN ERA.......................................

My great uncle Jim Johnson is the last of his generation. Hi is now 87 years old. He is my grandmother Heileson's youngest brother. Grandma died back in the early 90's. Uncle Jim has lived on his own for all of these years. Well at least since Aunt Millie died about 4 years ago. He has taken very good care of himself so he looks 10 or 15 years younger than he really is. He was in a rather bad car accident about a month and a half ago and was injured quit badly. He can no longer be allowed to live on his own so his former son-in-law Al is going to come and get him and take him back to California. Al was married to Jims daughter Marilyn. She died a few years ago from Cancer. I wanted so badly to get over to Idaho Falls before Uncle Jim left so that I could spend a few hours with him. I feel so badly that I couldn't. I may never see him again.
