BIOGRAPHY:
My Mom
Mom was so many things to so many people. I had a lot of respect for her because of the life we had. It could not have been easy raising 11 children. She was married to Barney Clark. Bonnie, John {Skip}, Laurie, Sharon were born. Mom moved in and lived with George Edward Ratcliffe. George was father to Susan, David, mark, Becky, and Matt. I do not have a lot of information on why they never married. The best I have is what was told to me by other family members. I also have nothing to defend why they split up. amom ended up marrying Stewart Washburn and along came my two little sisters Joanne and Jannette. Keeping a roof over us all and food in our tummies must have been very difficult for her. She somehow managed to do it though. Everyone of us grew up respecting life in general. We all have our own little stories and tales to tell. We all remember situations differently. If you talk to the oldest Bonnie she saw and felt one thing if you speak to the middle children throughout the various years you may get another opinion. I truely believe my mom did the best she could with what life threw her way. Lifes experiences made her a very strong independant person. She was a hard worker who knew right from wrong and tried to instill that in her children. We all had our stuggles but for the most part we grew up good people. We all have faults of course and some more than others but life goes on. I believe my mom made me the strong independant woman I am today. She gave me the drive I needed to make it in todays world. Nothing is handed to you. You have to work for it. Thanks mom for that life lesson because I hope I was able to hand that lesson down to my kids. I think I was successful in that and that you would be proud of your two grandsons. You never really got a chance to know them as they were just babies when you left us. I wish you could see all the grandchildren and great grandchildren who are here because of you. I know you are looking down on all of us with a huge smile on your face. I am glad you finally agreed to be baptised and I happen to baptized at the same time. Something I will never forget.
