About Florence Rockhold Fisher

My granddaughter Terri Hires Doss and her husband Gary Doss, shown above, are the proud parents of Samuel and Joshua, and I, Flo Fisher, am their great grandmother.

These two young men are the grandsons of my daughter Carole Suzanne Smith, who sadly we lost from lymphoma cancer 20 years ago, is smiling as she looks down from heaven.

Above Terri and her two precious baby boys.

When the family came to the boy’s Uncle Tracy and Aunt Pamela Drake home in Salem Ohio these two boys enjoyed the pool as depicted in these photos.

Joshua stayed close to the edge of the pool with his great Gramma, me, right there watching closely for his safety.

Samuel being older was having fun floating with a tube and splashing all around in the pool.

As these little boys grow up………

Needless to say, mother Terri and father Gary, of these handsome young men, are bursting with pride along with their Great Grandmother, me, Florence Fisher.

Not to be left out, Terri Doss, Samuel and Joshua’s mother, does transcriptions at home and……..

King Tinker’ has feline supremacy and is busy writing his Royal Memoirs.

That is what my daughter Pamela Dawn Drake said after her 66th birthday party held at her beautiful home in gated Deer Creek community Sarasota Florida.

One thing for sure, she is very, very happy that she now lives in the beautiful sunshine state of Florida. Would you like to see how happy she is? Well……com along with me while we have a look at her 66th birthday party.

My granddaughter Sarah Drake has driven down from her home in Tampa area bringing a big pink heart box containing a present for her mother. Our lovely neighbors Darlene LaPage and Patricia Boyer have appeared at our front door bringing a beautifully wrapped gift, a three bean salad and a bottle of chilled champagne. Aren’t they precious?

Every good party starts with a toast to the birthday girl so Tracy prepares drinks for each of us. Since I have no photo of this will you please use your imagination and picture each of us happy party people raising a goblet of champagne with a toast to happy 66th birthday girl, Pamela!

Now let’s have a look-see at our little group……

“How does Alaskan King Crab sound for Mother’s Day?” That was my son-in-law Tracy Drakes question. “My stomach has started smiling already.” Alaskan King Crab is my favorite entree bar non. YUM!!

My granddaughter Sarah Drake and her friend Ado have come down from Tampa area where they live and work to celebrate her mother Pamela and her grandmother me on our special day.

Sarah, always so helpful, placed a turquoise tablecloth on the lanai table and set it with heavy duty paper plates, little forks for retrieving Crab from the shells and melted butter containers resting in a rack over a tiny lighted candle.

While Tracy is steaming the large crab legs Sarah prepares a spring mix salad with her home made dressing.

In the refrigerator is a Boston creme cake topped with fruit,

Have I forgotten anything? Oh! Yes! Presents!! So we retire to the family room and first we see Pamela’s presents.
