Au Revoir Barbre Family

It was a long pain-staking decision - but my friend Joni, her husband Eugene, and daughter Krystle decided to call it quits here in Tennessee.  Eugene had a hard time finding work here and ended up having more work in Illinois - than here in Tennessee.  They endured the long spurts of time that separated them - and finally decided to pack it up and move  - lock, stock and barrel.  Illinois-bound to be closer to their son, his new wife, and all their grandchildren.  They were so excited!  Now they can finally be together!
Saturday was the " BIG" moving day....and the last day that I had a chance to meet with them before they left.....
It didn't take long!  They had several people that came down - including Joni's dad, her cousin and even the pastor-friend from their church in Illinois...3 pick up trucks, 2 trailers and 4 hours later..we said our good-byes...and off they went.  WOW!  It's hard to believe they're gone already!!!
