The Next Sister

OK, time for one more - is Sunday a good time for this???

My next sister, 3rd child in my family is Sharian Lynn Wilcock, born 12 December 1948 (Mom still puts her Christmas Tree up on this day) in Richfield, Sevier, Utah and Died the 13 August 1968. Sharian (Sharrie) was probably about 5'2", we are not very tall in this family. She had strawberry blond hair, brown eyes, or were they green? I don't remember. Slight build, who know how she would have grown up. She was happy, energetic, and very creative. She would sing silly songs that she made up. (got that from dad). One I remember was "A Dasie on my toe" and she would have an imaginary person hiding in the palm of her hand and dress it. This game really held the attention of my Loralie & James.

She was killed in a one care accident on the Caliente Summit with her sweetheart. They were planning to be married soon.

Here is a picture of Sharrie, it is her college picture. She went to school for one year at BYU Hawaii.

My Happy Sister

This picture is of me age 2 and RosaLee age probably about 6 months. It really is a black & white but RosaLee with all her talent learned to tint old pictures and made us come alive.

My sister just younger than me is RosaLee Ann, born 10 Sept. 1946, in Delta, Millard, Utah. She is 5'2" tall, has dark hair, but lately it's been blond, I guess under the blond it's gray like mine.

We like to do the same king of things only different. For instance I china paint, she paints dolls. I quilt (straight seams) she makes cloths, mostly for grand children. She has began quilting and it's fun to share patterns etc. We both embroidery and have done some fun projects. If we work on the same project, we seem to stay connected more often.

She is a wonderful cook, I don't cook. My daughter once said her goal was to be just like Aunt Lee, cook, sew, all of those talents and she has acquired those skills. (Correction) She said she wanted to be just like me, but be able to do all the things Aunt Lee does. Loralie is old enough to correct me

Her husband is David Joseph, she has 4 children and 12 grand children. The all live close to her and David so she has a great influence on them.

Can you tell I love this woman, but she is a little intimidating, I don't think I can really measure up.




Here is her picture taken in, you guessed it - 1971.

Pushing Along

Alright!! I'm getting the hang of this. Eventually I'll be able to sign on without even thinking about it. Thanks to my terrific daughter for her encouragement and support.

Next in my Family tree is my Mom. Her name is Guila (pronounced Gila) May Jensen, she was born September 23, 1926 in Richfield, Sevier, Utah. She is 5'4", has dark hair, however, I think if she let it grow out it would now be gray. Her posterity is large, she is beginning to have great great grand children. She lives in a very Small community called Panaca, Lincoln, Nevada. We have dubbed her home "Ye old homestead" . Below is a picture of Mom taken in, big surprise, 1971.


Here is a picture of both Mom and Dad, taken in 1944, in Upland, Californian after I was born!! Do you think they look very young and is love???

OK FINE

I'm unable to get the picture I wanted here, so I'm "adapting" that's what my eye Dr. said today. My eyes are not any better, but I'm "adapting" so I appear to be able to see better. That sounds silly but I'm feeling OK about it.
Anyway on to "My Family" Here is a picture of my Dad, he was born 31 October 1919 in Spry, Garfield, Utah, he died in a car accident on September 17, 1972 in Delta, Millard, Utah.
As an adult he stood 5'9", I don't know how much he weighed, but the joke in our family is that his pant size was 30X30. He had thick dark brown, nearly black hair, brown eyes and he loved us unconditionally. He was so much fun to be around, he teased mucho, I think my son James is almost as good a tease as my Dad. If I can get this to work I will post a picture of Dad, taken 1971, a family picture I have cut it apart for Family History purposes.

Beginning

I'm probably not going to be really good at this, but my purpose is to accaquent my "Descendants" with their Family history. I will begin with Me.
I'm the Farawat Grandma. I am the oldest of 6 children. I was born in California, all of my siblings were born in Utah. In 100 years or less if I don't keep good records, I could be lost out of my family. Think about it, would you go looking for me????
