February 7, 2009. SanAntonio, Tx. My Family.

My friend Martha asked me for up to date information on my Family. I am happy to oblige. Son Andrew, born in 1968 in Galveston, Tx. is married to Christina Creath, from Houston. They have three children Kate 12, Mary Frances 9, and Molly who is one. They moved to Jackson, Mississippi last August and Andrew has opened his own Insurance Brokerage. Christina is home schooling the girls. After College, Andrew lived in Japan for almost three years before completing a law degree and a Masters in International Affairs at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Christina went to graduate school with David and has an MBA from Baylor. In fact, Andrew and Christina met at a graduation party for David .

David was born in 1969, in Galveston, TX. and married Suzanne Capps. also from Houston, TX. They met at Southwestern University, in Georgetown, Tx. and married right after Graduate school, David with an MBA from Baylor and Suzanne with a Masters Degree in Special Education from Women's Christian College. They chose San Antonio as their home. David owns his own company "Financial Solutions", with about 18 people on his payroll. They have four children: Sarah 11, Abigail 9, Samantha and Allison ,identical twins who are seven. Their dog Crush is a Yellow Labrador Retriever.

My Brother David Buckley married Irene Chalk in 1953 and lives in Ancaster, Ontario. They are both retired although Dave plays in three musical groups playing his trombone. They visit us in Nova Scotia every summer and they used to visit us in Texas too, but Dave's rehearsal schedule makes travel difficult.

My sister Carol is married to Ken Barby. They live on a lake south of Owen Sound Ontario. They are also both retired. They are both still active in the Owen Sound Salvation Army and are staunch supporters of the local hockey team. In fact, Ken Barby never misses a game.

Ken's brother Keith married Wilma in Brandon Manitoba and still lives there. They also are both retired and like to travel in their RV. They have also visited us in Nova Scotia a few times. They and their daughter and all our other relatives and friends attended our 50TH wedding anniversary last August, 2008.

Ken and I enjoy our lifestyle, but most people would not enjoy our constant coming and going. Probably we both have a bit of ADD, so our present life works well for us. We love our homes, and we love best the one we live in right that moment. So we have no answer to the question of what spot we like the best. We love them all, just like our children and grandchildren. Ken and I feel very fortunate and very blessed, and hope to keep it all going for another twenty or more years!!
