Mom was a great mom...with 3 boys to train (ha!) She had her hands full....like clockwork, she had certain chores she always did....our meals were always around 5 and each day she had a certain meal pork chops in the pressure cooker on Sunday, broiled spam & velveta cheese on hamburger buns (she used an old hand grinder to mix the spam & cheese together), eggs & toast for supper sometimes, hamburgers, I don't recall most of the others, we always had cereal for breakfast .....She ironed our clothes...even handkerchiefs & underwear.....I cherish the bedtime stories she'd read from a big Bible story book and she'd take us along with her when she went to the Hackley public library....she was a great mom and loved her husband and kids lots.....sure wish I could have more time with her, got lots of questions & would love to sit & talk

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I often think about the days of growing up on Blodgett Street. I feel very fortunate for the wonderful friends and families from my youth. Playing prairie dogs in Pietrala's backyard,playing marbles behind your garage, playing four horses on your drive-way or going to the YMCA are all fondly remembered. I even remember the day Pa Card was building the back cover for your truck and he asked me to pull his finger. I still laugh today about the end results.

Most important, the Dobbersteins were a very special family.

Again, my thoughts and prayers are with you.
