Thread Name: Family Keepsakes: What have YOU kept?
Subject: RE: Family Keepsakes: What have YOU kept?
From my father - a bible he was given for perfect attendence in a Sunday school class. His wedding ring, some of his cuff links and a plaque with a part for one of the Mercury space missions he worked on. And from time to time I wear the Amewrican Flag pin that he wore during the 60's.

From my mother - I gave her wedding and engagement ring to my wife when I proposed, one of her favorite quilts that was made by my grandmother, an old coffee pot that I love, and some glass pieces.

From my grandfather on my mothers side I have several silver dollars, a crystal he found, several rocks from the old farm and three books by Edgar Rice Borroughs - Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar, Tarzan the Terrible and the Gods Of Mars.
