Al would like some historic photos.

I've recently determined to apply a motto that Marjorie Hinckley had for her life. She said, "Expect the worst, and if it doesn't happen, you'll be pleasantly surprised!" (p.86, Glimpses Into the Life and Heart of Marjorie Pay Hinckley)

From: Alan Pitts:'It's best to believe the worst, if you believe the worse then the best is no worse than expected so it's best to believe the worst.' This is a famous line from the, The Curious Savage, a Broadway play in the which the actor, Jeffery had this philosophy. He was a very talented musician that had a perfectly normal face but believed he was severely disfigured from a fire. The play written by John Patrick, I played Jeffery and played a few bars of, Prelude in C# Minor on the piano in the Little Theater. Participating in this production is one of my favorite memories of High School at Carbon High.
I went to the reading with Linda Broadbent, I was given the part of Jeffery. The student director was Konnie Magliocco, who is now my wife of Forty Four years. Konnie and I started dating in College.
Your email brought this to mind, what's left of it.

Sincerely
al pitts
M: What a great memory. Thanks for sharing that. I am glad that you two found each other. Where is Linda? the last I heard she was still in Price. That has been 10 years ago.
I have not forgotten that you want photos. I just can't find where I put them. I have now sent out a call to my kids to help me out. Their poor and troubled mother has lost it. I have a friend who told her kids that when she got too old to remember who she was, not to put her in a rest home. "Just hit me in the head with a hammer," she said. Her oldest son replied, "OK, Mom, where is the hammer?"
Lots of love, M
Al: Where is Linda? I talked with Gregg McArthur about two months ago and he sent me an email stating that she was in Orange county, CA. I looked her up in the white pages on line and there is a Linda Gibbs in orange county, Ca. We have had no contact since high school. Sad, at least for me, she was my best friend all during the 11-12 grade. I am grateful to her for many things, my testimony would top the list. She was a good friend to me. I remember Linda quite often.
Would really like those photo's. Next trip to Ut I will call so we can hook up and visit.
Love you, Cuz

M: By the way, just in case you were wondering, I lead a quiet life. NOT! That is why I don't have whole days to search. I have to just grab quiet moments here and there. I know I sent a copy of said disk to my kids. I did not inherit the photo album with the historic photos--Charlotte did. (Charlotte and Wally Kilfoyle ) I just have the disk that I made from the photo album for the rest of us. Laurel and Cydney chose particular photos and we had those copied at WalMart. They did not want a disk. I got the flag over Dad's grave and his war stuff and Charlotte got the historic Pitts/Edwards family photo album. The historic photos are easily copied in today's tech world and we did that but she has the originals. I am certain that my oldest son has a disk and I am fairly certain my oldest daughter does. However, our family, as you can tell from the newsletter, has been busy so no one has taken time to look.

You are not planning a quick exit to this world, are you? We are worried that Garth Childs, cousin on the Smith side, may be. He has cancer of the bone and is taking radiation.
Thanks! 

You are not the only one who would like those photos. SO WOULD I!!!!!!!

We had a flood in my office in the basement. The water valve that brings water into the house developed a serious leak last winter. It did not freeze, it just quit working. We took everything out of the office and put everything in safe and dry places until we got the mess cleaned up. Luckily, all of the wonderful stuff, like photos, I had placed in plastic containers so I just had to wipe off the outsides and move them from the big storage closet to the storage room, the garage, the bedroom closets or wherever they would fit. We put the computer stuff back in first and it has been search and search and search again ever since then. They are not gone nor are they forgotten they are just somewhere.

Love, Myrna
Al: Keep looking but I will also contact Charlotte. Maybe she will let me look at the album.
Love, M
Al: Wally Kilfoyle , is this the Wally Kilfoyle of Kilfoyle Lumber located just past the bridge on the south side of Price?
M: It is the one and the same. They live in Idaho now. Wally had a heart transplant or, like his parents before him, he would have died of heart disease at an early age. It doesn't help that he and Charlotte have always been drinkers. (I know, my church is showing.) I think he has stopped that somewhat, but I am not certain. Of course, I do not know what is allowed of a transplant. He recently had surgery to correct an aneurysm in his abdomen. All went well. He looked fine on Memorial Day.

Thanks Myrna it is wonderful,. Love you Mona Grundvig

Six doctor appointments you should make.‏

Kirsten wrote: The second one, below, is crucial to Whitney's college fund, so please obey!!!  Actually, we'd prefer if you would let all your teeth rot and then want to fix them all with root canals and crowns.  

Doctors aren’t just for when you are sick – regular visits with them can 
prevent problems before they become an issue. Here are 6 doctor appointments 
you should make. 

Eye exam. Whether you wear glasses or not, you should get your eyes checked 
every two years. If you are over 55, wear glasses, or have diabetes, you 
should schedule an appointment once a year. 

Dental cleaning. Children and adults alike should get a regular dental 
cleaning every six months. If you have gum disease, you should visit your 
dentist every three months. 

Skin cancer screening. While you should check your body for new or changing 
moles at least once a month, you should also schedule an appointment with a 
dermatologist once a year to screen for skin cancer. 

Cholesterol test. After 45, you should get a cholesterol test at least every 
5 years (although many doctors include this test in yearly blood work). If 
you have other risk factors for heart disease, such as diabetes, high blood 
pressure, or a family history of heart disease, you should start testing 
your cholesterol at 20. 

Colonoscopy. A colonoscopy allows a doctor to look into your large intestine 
and screen for abnormal growths, ulcers, and cancers. If you are over 50, 
you should get a colonoscopy every 5 to 10 years. 

Mammogram. A mammogram is a low-dose xray system that screens women for 
breast cancer. Women over 40 should get a mammogram every year, and women 
who notice a change in their breast (such as a lump, or pain) should consult 
a doctor immediately to ensure there are no problems.
