    1976 was the best year ever in my family..I was 12 at the time. Mom, dad and 6 of us kids we all were still together and the best of health..Family was still young...Now, in 2024 dad is no longer with us ( passed on in 1986 ), a younger brother passed on 2017, and another younger brother passed on this past February...It's so sad as the years go by we all get older and passed on...I wish we could be stuck in time forever and the early 70's would be my choice...Also so many wonder music came out of the 70s as well.. All these oldies bring back so much fond memories..
