Weddings in the Family
We have had at least two weddings in the family within the last year. Just last month Carolyn Betty married Eben Copple in Hawaii. Carolyn is an Opera Singer and Eben is an Executive Chef. Carolyn's mother resides in Hawaii so it must have been a beautiful background for a wedding.
April 6, 2007 John and Violet became Mr. & Mrs. Patton. You would have gotten the news earlier but the picture was having trouble loading. My son Ben is helping me change the format. It is a beautiful picture. They were married on a most special day as April 6 is the first day of the Mayan calender. It is also the day many Doak descendants believe to be the true day of Christ's birth.
Jon is a firefighter. If you get a a chance to see the old movie "Always" it reminded me of John. When I told Patty Meacham Patton that it reminded me of John she informed me that that was strange because a small part was filmed on John's Uncle's oat field in Washington. The main thing I loved about the movie was how it depicts our deceased loved ones helping us in this life. They are indeed a part of us and we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for them. Violet is a lawyer. They live in McCall, Idaho
Nearly 10 months later Patty and George Patton are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their 3rd grandchild with every phone call. Don't call them unless you want them to be disappointed with the news you have compared to the news they are awaiting. It has happened to me twice. I only get a disappointed voice on the other end. Hopefully we'll get a photo soon.
