My memory is very real to me,
And where ever I might roam,
Once more to see the twilight fall,
On the Joseph Ether and Matilda Staker home.
Today one more twilight has fallen
As Nina bids good by to her husband George,
She married 67 years ago, in the Logan Temple,
And her four children, Ruth (Dean) Law,
Margaret (Dwain) McGary, George (Lanay)
Brinkerhoff, James (Irene) Brinkerhoff;
17 grandchildren and 37 great-grandchildren.∼The nails behind our stove,
There was a nail for every one,
Twas there we hung our stockings,
For Santa Claus to come.
And that squeaky high back rocker,
To see destroyed cuts to the quick,
In it our mother used to sing,
And rock when we were sick.
As I drive by our old home,
I see mother at the door,
Just like she did long long ago,
Memory makes me a child once more.
