I�m
attaching 2 photos taken on October 4th at the
Sunnyside (WA) Sunshine Days Parade. Our oldest son,
Brian Winter (KA7IAC), is running for Yakima County
Sheriff and this would be the last opportunity for
his Mom to see him in his campaign car. The staff at
Prestige Care here in town � where Marilyn is a
resident - went the extra mile in making sure that
Marilyn and 5 other residents got to the parade
route. I got to ride "shotgun" with Brian
and his wife, Tammy. She drove and he sat up on the
back seat of the borrowed 1957 Chevy Bel Aire. As we
approached Marilyn and the others I could see the
Activities Director holding Marilyn�s face and
pointing at Brian who was waving and calling
"Mom! Mom!" She responded with
out-stretched arms, a huge smile and a cry of
"Brian! Brian!" It was a very emotion-al
moment.
The
first photo shows the Chevy with myself, Brian and
his wife, Tammy, as we came abreast of the
wheelchair residents. The second photo was taken an
instant later of Marilyn as she watched her family
passing by.
I
thought perhaps this could be a blessing for the
many who have prayed for Marilyn during these last
ten months and for those who are aware of our
son�s campaign running, as he is, as a
"conservative Christian."
