1908

Two blessings descended on the JackEverett household in 1970. His wife, Gladys, made a fine recovery from a coronary. Secondly, Jack joined his son and son's wife for a two-week trip to Ireland, including U.K., Armagh and Tyrone counties in Ulster. "Not a sign of trouble there, but over in 'Derry, they were 'having it at each other,' as the Irish say." Jack, did you really mean two weeks or a fortnight?
