Surprise Visitor at Thanksgiving in Orland Park

 
Susan Williams sent this to your editor who has been lax in posting it.  Sounds as if a wonderful time was had by all!

Thanksgiving at the Susan (Fieg) and Ed Williams home in Orland Park, Il. had a nice unexpected surprise: Greg Fieg arrived in time to help eat up the turkey dinner!

After dinner, Susan shared with Greg all the family memorabilia in their home.  One antique of particular interest was a wood tool box from (Uncle) Bud's home in Missouri that must have been used by one of the carpenters at Grandpa Fieg's shop in Oneonta, N.Y. at least six decades ago.   (Ed. note:  a video of Ed's expansive workshop in the home was also forwarded and can be shared upon request.)

Great Uncle Hermann's paintings were discussed, though no decision was made as to what to do with the two paintings that Doug brought to the Las Vegas reunion. The family also reviewed pictures from the Las Vegas reunion and talked about the fantastic memories.
